The Cleaning and Maintenance Division was up on the public holiday of St Paul the Apostle to clean up whatever damage had been left in the wake of Storm Helios. Significant damage was suffered in Marsaskala, St. Julian’s, and Sliema, particularly on the promenade. “We also had road closures as a result of rubble walls falling in Qrendi, Imqabba, and Ħal Qormi,” Deguara added. Meanwhile, the storm is now moving towards northwest Libya, but a yellow weather warning remains in force and gusts of wind reaching gale-force speeds were still being registered on Friday morning. For now, it should be a mostly cloudy day with showers of rain or hail, becoming thundery at times.
