The Vice-President of the Regional Government said that a survey on the amount of damage caused by the Christmas Day storm, which affected the parishes of Ponta Delgada and Boaventura, in São Vicente is still being determined, and is not expected to be completed until mid January 2021.
He later admitted that the current estimate of damage is in the region of ten million euros, but this figure could change as the clearing and cleanup process is still on-going.
So far, twenty-seven properties have been affected, two of which are beyond repair.
