[AMNA]
Residents in the northern port city of Thessaloniki confronted storms and hail Thursday afternoon, enduring an hour of heavy rain.
Streets transformed into rivers, causing traffic disruptions on central arteries. Agion Panton Street, under the bridge, became impassable.
Firefighters received 25 calls for water pumping. They aided in evacuating an elderly person and a mother with her child from a car.
Trees fell in the city center, and floodwaters entered shops on Kountouriotou Street and near the courts.
