Snow creates problems in the north of Albania

The north of Albania has been invaded not only by rain, but especially during the weekend there has been a drop in temperatures and an increase in snowfall.

The area of ​​Theth, Valbona, Puka or others around have had difficulties with circulation due to the thickness of the snow.

Some areas are left without electricity and some roads are blocked by snow.


The snowfall has caused a more problematic situation in Shkodra region. The Bogë-Theth axis is blocked in the area of ​​avalanches. The thickness of the snow has reached from 80 centimeters to 1 meter, reports Euronews Albania.

Avalanches have also fallen at the beginning of Thora's neck, and intervention with contractor means is difficult if the rains do not stop as the workers are at risk. Meanwhile, the Hani Hotit-Tamarë axis has no problems and traffic is carried out normally.

The Tamarë-Vermosh axis is also open, but for circulation vehicles must have winter tires and the use of chains on steep segments. /Telegraph/
