Flash Flooding Paralyzes Buenos Aires After Intense Storm

Streets remain flooded at San Martin on December 23, 2025 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A sudden and violent storm struck Buenos Aires and the surrounding metropolitan area on Tuesday afternoon, December 23, triggering severe flash flooding after a day of extreme heat. Up to 80 millimeters of rain fell in under an hour in some areas, submerging cars, flooding streets, and paralyzing major routes including the Pan-American Highway and General Paz Avenue. At least 30 people were rescued from trapped vehicles, while emergency services received hundreds of calls. The Unicenter shopping mall in Martínez was evacuated as images of the flooding spread rapidly on social media. (Footage by @lulamatista/Spectee via Getty Images UGC)
