El Nino Wave Flips Car [Video]

We're in the midst of some aggressive times weather wise, with this wave in Chile showing some serious muscle.

That El Nino has just gone too far, the weather system causing havoc around the world. Our droughts? Thanks El Nino, which translates as ‘little boy’ but should really mean bothersome twat.

Now folks in Chile are feeling the effects of El Nino, a driver lucky to escape his vehicle as the country’s east coast took a hammering, More from the Independent:

Waves to reached up to 16ft (5 metres) high due to the powerful El Nino storm that hit the Pacific Coast. They were reported to be the biggest in the region since 2013.

The severe storm has also caused flooding in some parts of the country, having reached its peak just before midnight on Sunday.

Some areas have been closed off to vehicles and residents have been warned to stay away from beaches until the weather eases.

I would suggest staying away from the beach would be a shrewd decision.
