Ingis car was taken by 'Dagmar' - Incredible

It looks absolutely incredible, but the important thing is that no one
was injured. It was probably talking about 11 trees that fell in this
area, says Ingi Bogie Hrafnsson the AP by telephone from the coast of
Scotland.

I hope the insurance covers

27-year-old from Iceland went to sea two weeks ago, and will not
return to violence in two weeks. Now he crosses his fingers that the
insurance will cover damage to the more than ten year old car, which
he has had in eighteen months.

- Now, it probably just scrapped. It looks bad, and it is not so much
to think about it. I have not come in contact with the insurance
company this evening, but will try again. Since it is an old car, I do
not hull insurance on it, says Ingi Monday night.

- The safest place

The car was parked at a large tree, which Trees in the fierce wind in
Vike village of Volda Sunnmøre night 2 Boxing Day. The car has simply
been the root of the height.

- It was parked in the space that would be the most secure, itself.

The storm "Dagmar" has toppled colossal amounts of trees in many parts
of the country, and among other things, provided a power failure for
more than 100,000 households. Trees have also passed on buildings and
other things, but fortuitously it seems that no one has been
physically injured.

Ingi Bogie Hrafnsson rent housing by Rune Rotevatn, as 2 Christmas Day
saw the damage - and the car up in the overturned tree.

- It was a surreal sight, says Rune Rotevatn.

He says that the car's broken windshield, and bulk damage.

"Dagmar 's ravage rings cost Norwegian insurance expensive. Financial
Services' Union (FNO) estimated that the storm "Berit" costs 275
million in claims. "Dagmar" is expected to be more expensive

Yes, quite dramatic. Similar conditions were in my hometown, Ørsta
at midnight and earlier 25/26th. The video would be even more
interesting if in better resolution.
