Flash floods submerged cars as powerful storms swept through Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Dramatic footage shows severe flooding at the intersection of Vieytes and California streets in the Barracas neighbourhood on May 16.

One vehicle was seen partially submerged as torrential rains inundated the area.

The region was placed under a red alert Friday evening, with the National Meteorological Service reporting 150 to 250 mm (6–10 inches) of rain between Zarate and Arrecifes.

Authorities warned that the storms were 'constantly regenerating' with more heavy rain expected.

Officials confirmed that thousands of residents were evacuated on Saturday due to widespread flooding.
