Destructive waves hit Tenerife, Canary Islands

A severe storm produced spectacular waves across the Canary Islands over the weekend, especially on the northern coast of Tenerife where dozens of people have been evacuated from their homes.

The waves kept crashing into buildings late November 17 into 18, reaching as high as 3rd floor of one apartment building block in Mesa del Mar. The storm smashed restaurant windows and swept cars into the sea.
