On Monday, the provinces of Neuquén and Chubut suffered a severe storm with winds of over 150 kilometers per hour, which led to the declaration of a state of climatic emergency, as reported by the Argentine News Agency. The meteorological alert for wind is active in the central, southern, and Atlantic coastal areas.
