Waterspout sweeps through Tri An lake in Dong Nai
VOV.VN - A waterspout developed at Tri An lake in the southern province of Dong Nai on September 2.
The waterspout occurred at the lake bed at around 4:45 p.m., collecting water from the reservoir to form a columnar vortex. It then moved to the shore where it damaged a number of fish-farming rafts.
According to local authorities, the waterspout caused no casualties, although it completely destroyed a raft house, swept away a fishing boat, and turned two rafts and two fishing boats upside down.
Waterspouts are rarely seen in Vietnam, according to a representative of the Dong Nai Hydro-meteorological Station.
Previously, a waterspout appeared in April in the southern province of Kien Giang, scaring many tourists.
