Sinkhole opens up near Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, prompts hilarious Twitter reaction

A 4-by-4 feet sinkhole has formed right outside Mar-a-Lago, the famous Palm Beach, Florida resort that US President Donald Trump is known to frequent.

Although the sinkhole has not caused any major traffic delays, the lane in which it appeared has been closed for the relevant authorities to analyse and fix.

Palm Beach town, in a notification issued earlier today, said the sinkhole is "in the vicinity of the newly-installed water main. West Palm Beach Utilities distribution crews have secured the area and will most likely need to do some exploratory excavation today".

The alert also advised motorists to be cautious of the signs, as "one lane is closed but the road remains open."

Calling the sinkhole "relatively small - compared to others [...] seen throughout the state," WBALTV's Sanika Dange, who was on the scene, said that "traffic is being redirected to the turn lane and then crossover".

Mar-a-Lago is unofficially called the Winter White House and White House 2.0 due to Trump's regular visits to the estate and hosting foreign leaders, such as Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Not letting any opportunity go to waste, Twitterati, on the other hand, found humour in this situation as well.

But I guess this one wins!
