This sinkhole appeared last sunday in a street intersection of Ciudad de Guatemala. Just looking at the photo gives me vertigo.

A sinkhole is a natural depression caused by the removal of underground soil by water. Usually, it happens when the substrate is formed by limestone, carbonate rock, salt beds or any other rock that is easily eroded by water streams. The process could be slow, but sometimes the land just cracks open without notice. In this case, it happened suddenly, swallowing an entire house. The cause: Massive underground water torrents created by tropical storm Agatha.

Sinkholes’ size ranges from low terrain depressions to hundred of meters. Unlike the similar sinkhole that killed two teens in 2007. At least one local newspaper is reporting one person dead, but the authorities have not confirmed it. Some neighbors claim that a whole three-story building and a house fell into the hole.

The massive twister destroyed several properties including houses, mobile homes and cars. A truck stop took a direct hit from the storm and was completely demolished according to a spokeswoman from the establishment. People who took shelter in truck stop had minor injuries but was directly given medical treatment after the incident.

Two shelters were opened by the American Red Cross in McCloud, Oklahoma and Tecumseh, Oklahoma, which is still continuing to treat those who have been injured by the storm.

There were other tornadoes reported to be seen in Yukon, Medford and Shawnee in Oklahoma as well as in Wichita, Kansas.
