Sink Hole, Crater, Or Both?

Posted by Red Kingman on

What if you woke up after a night of driving rain to find this across the street from your home, or right next door? Well that is exactly what happened to the residents of this Guatemalan neighborhood.

While no deaths have been linked thus far to the sinkhole, it was just the latest tragedy after Tropical Storm Agatha tore into Central America. More than 175 people have died in connection with the floods in the region, which includes Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

The 66 feet wide sinkhole is about 100 feet deep. Residents in the area had long complained of rumblings, fissures and sinking terrain. 

It looks totally frightening to me! What do you think?
