Andorra's fire service responded to three minor wind-related incidents on Saturday afternoon across Santa Coloma, Ordino, and La Margineda, with no injuries or serious consequences reported.
The first call came at the Escola Andorrana in Santa Coloma, where firefighters removed a loose roof tile posing a fall risk before it could drop.
Around 6:45pm, a team was dispatched to a construction site in the Clota Verda area of Ordino to secure wooden elements that strong winds had dislodged from the ground. The materials were stabilised, and crews wrapped up the operation shortly after.
By 7:45pm, attention turned to La Margineda near the petrol station, where gusts toppled two fencing panels from the ongoing construction of a future shopping centre. Firefighters cleared the fallen barriers without further issues.
All interventions were precautionary and resolved quickly, according to service updates. Winds across Andorra prompted the calls, but conditions remained manageable.
