The destructions of “Karl”
Fallen trees, collapsed palms, thrown horse armor, dozens of destechadas houses, mainly in the colony Santa Teresa where the intermunicipal police had to evacuate people, and a series from destructions to houses, businesses and buildings, mainly in the glass windows, was what caused to the hurricane “Karl” by its passage in the connurbada zone.
The services of emergencia did not occur supply; civil defense, the Red Cross, municipal firemen and conurbados, took care of hundreds of aid and their telephones stayed saturated throughout the passage of the meteorological phenomenon entering a recording of which “it was occupied”.
All the historical center of the port of Veracruz and low parts of Mouth of the River flooded after the strong blow of the hurricane “Karl”, with intense rains and winds with gusts of wind of up to 200 kilometers per hour; in the firemen when they answered they said “we cannot leave because right now it is sticking very strong the hurricane by our security”, and gave to recommendations to which called.
1. - It does not leave his house but it must nothing do.
2. - It looks for his important and métalos documents in a plastic stock market.
3. - They stay reunited with its family in a single safe place of its house.
4. - It looks for lamps, dry clothes, and one does not get wet.
5. - The radio or the television Listens to be pending of the contigencia.
Between some other things while the hurricane “Karl” stuck strong to the zone conurbada with intense rains and winds superiors to the two hundred kilometers per hour.
In three hours that I delay the force of the phenomenon, the historical center flooded and the low parts of Mouth of the River of the same form. Dozens of houses were flooded and the intermunicipal police noticed that the laminae of the houses in the colony Santa Teresa and Lombardo Toledano were being destechando by the wind force.
Dozens of trees were collapsed by the wind force, some took cables of electrical energy, cables of television by cable, and cables of telephones. For a moment the conurbada zone was isolated nor the Internet could connect to the network.
Still to three of afternoon, the veracruzanos could not understand the damage that “Karl” had caused to the hurricane; Veracruz followed flooded and rain did not stop. Dozens of vehicles were beached because the water arrived to them at the motor and they were stopped remaining voted. By: Eva Ramirez

Karl destroys Highway stretches and generates power outages in Veracruz
Full and Martinez de la Torre municipalities have been the hardest ahsta when passing Meteor.
Veracruz- highway sections in full and Martinez de la Torre, cuts of electricity in more than 30 veracruzanos municipalities, suspension of telephone services, uprooting trees root, violent winds exceeded the 185 miles per hour at 11: 30 Karl came to Veracruz, is the balance of the hurricane through Veracruz territory.
The Meteor that came with category 3 and advanced with two category to the mountainous area, forced suspension of activity in the evacuation of the inhabitants and tourists who were holiday hotels and communities of the municipalities of Úrsulo Galván Actopan, Alto Lucero, Emerald Coast where Karl caused severe havoc among the population and economic activity that was virtually suspended, from the mouth of the River to its bridge Laguna Verde nuclear plant.
The palapas Guans, and part of Emerald Coast beaches were semi-sepultadas by rough seas.
Secretary of civil protection of the State Government, Silvia López Dominguez, noted that more than a thousand 500 persons were transferred to some 120 enabled hostels Cardel Úrsulo Galván, Tecolutla, Veracruz, Xalapa, because the phenomenon headed towards the mountainous area between Orizaba and Jalapa with category 2.
The basins of the rivers Actopan, Tuxpan, Pánuco, full, Tecolutla grew by heavy rainfall, especially full began to overflow from noon, causing flooding in low communities settled in its margins.
In the area Metropolitan Veracruz-Boca del Río semaphores blew up while the streets were flooded, even in the wake of hurricane.
Reports of and distress calls multiplied, given the amount of leakage of gas, palms, trees, spectacular commercials shot down by the hurricane.
Port a fisherman was severely injured when trying to ensure their boat on fishing pier adjacent to merchant sailing school.
From the sea, large stones were flying as dangerous projectiles.
The spectacle of the fury of Karl was incredible, and while in Veracruz we are accustomed to winds of up to 160 kilometers per hour, we had never lived a hurricane with winds of more than 185 kilometers per hour.
In mountain areas were landslides which affected roads and rains deluge full and Zongolica sierra streams.

Re: ATL: KARL - Hurricane - Discussion
Think they said gusts at 120mph in Veracruz.
The mountains probably cut off the inflow before landfall.

There doesn't appear to be much left of Karl on satellite. Hurricanes and tall mountains don't mix well.

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Depression - Discussion
I heard 15 inches of rain in the mountains on NPR. That should cause some life-threatening floods.

Well it's a minor miracle that Karl weakened a bit before its final landfall. Still, has anyone seen pictures of the damage so far? VERY depressing in the Veracruz area. I especially had a hard time looking at AP photos from one town, Chachalacas. A lot of damage throughout that state.

Re: ATL: KARL - Tropical Depression - Discussion
Looking at satellite, there's so much disturbed weather over the SW Gulf in Karl's wake that I almost wonder if something else can form from it.
