The blue metal sheet flew off during a sudden gale, blocking traffic and raising dust across the street — but miraculously, no one was injured. Meteorological authorities had issued a gale warning that morning, urging precautions against dangerous wind conditions. The incident shows how extreme winds turn loose building materials into deadly flying debris, creating hazards for drivers and pedestrians below.
