В начале недели после сильных дождей провалился грунт на лугу в боро Пальмира в американском штате Пенсильвания. Похожая на огромную лунку для гольфа воронка появилась за жилой зоной и опасности для домов не представляла. Ее глубина оценивалась в 6 метров. Власти оградили опасное место защитным барьером и сказали, что она будет заделана в ближайшее время, сообщает телеканал WPMT FOX43.
Many thanks to Chris and Emily for keeping us posted about a new sinkhole near North Side elementary in Palmyra.
As we get additional details, we will keep you posted.
I had an outstanding meeting today on some recommended approaches in dealing with these problems. pic.twitter.com/kHvGdUjhEE

Check this 📸 out: It's not a portal to another universe or one of those pothole bunkers you see on a British golf course. It's a sinkhole! Found in a yard in Palmyra, Lebanon County, and @BGallagherTV will have more on it starting at 5am on @fox43 Morning News. pic.twitter.com/RSwyZX9EqW

Crews now setting up a safety barrier around the sinkhole behind MacInotsh Crossings.
Officials with the development group tell me this is actually the second sink hole they’ve experienced here, and say this one is almost 30 feet deep. @fox43 pic.twitter.com/aVXlhMzC9A

Pretty wild! I’ve never seen a sinkhole up close before. Neighbors tell me this is the 5th one that’s opened up near this retention base in Palmyra, Lebanon County in the last year. What a state rep is doing to try and stop more from happening at 4 & 5 on @fox43. pic.twitter.com/oF00CGqvC8
