As a result of Leonardo's depression, more than 11,000 people have had to be evicted from their homes throughout Andalusia and one person has died in Malaga da, dragged by the flow of a river.
The president of Andalusia, Juanma Moreno, has called for caution and attention from this Saturday to the citizens in the face of the possibility of heavy rains.
He has pointed out that the land is not capable of so much water and that some rivers and swamps are full, so he has warned that rain of about 30 litres per square metre could "complicate the situation even further."
Although he is now in a state of level 2 emergency, at least until 11 February, Moreno has declared that for his government it is a "red alert" throughout the territory.

After the passage of Leonardo, Aemet warned yesterday that another blur called Martha would shake the peninsula, with "persistent rainfall" and "very strong winds," especially in the south and east of the peninsula.
According to Aemet, Martha will be dissolved from Sunday 8, as high pressures are expected to settle in the southern part of the peninsula.
One death and 11,000 people out of the house.
