The rain has caused flooding in the west of the peninsula, and the storm has suspended many activities for the day and event.
In Zaragoza, for example, municipalities like Cuarte de Huerva have been completely flooded.
The situationwill continue to be bad in the next few hours, especially in southernCatalonia, theBalearic Islandsand, more critically, in the Valencian Community, where very high rainfall, the risk of flooding and possible floods of rivers are expected, so red warnings for extreme weather events remain in place in the area.

At the same time, 283 litres/m2 have accumulated in Pinet; 275.4 litres in Barx; and 190.2 litresin Rafelcofer. In Aldaia(Valencia), the neighbors have spent the night waiting for the ravine floodgates to prevent it from overflowing.
