More than 500 people remain in shelters due to floods

October 9, 2018 by Staff News Writer

Exactly 512 people remain in shelters due to floods. According to the National Commission of Emergencies (CNE) some of the families will not return soon to their homes, because they were very affected by the storm.

The main impact is in the Pacific, especially in sectors such as Jicaral or Paquera.

On Tuesday, the National Emergency Commission (CNE) called for caution, because two tropical waves are expected this week, which would aggravate the saturation of soils. These phenomena will mainly affect the Central Pacific, South Pacific and the Central Valley.
