The river has overflowed in the Butron basin, but the situation will improve in the next few hours
The torrential rains of the last few hours have led the rivers to overflow at some points. In the north-west of Bizkaia and south-west of Gipuzkoa it has fallen the most in the last few hours, and although the yellow warning for rain has been in effect until 06:00, it will tend to leave in the next few hours and the situation is expected to improve.
The river has overflowed at some points in the Butron basin. The orange level of the river in Mungiathis morning has led to the closure of the Lauaxeta bridge as a preventive measure. Firefighters and local police have had to intervene in road and underground parking in the vicinity of the Butron basin in Derio, Bakio and Mungia.
Euskalmet announces maximum rainfall in Bizkaia, which is expected to accumulate up to 60 litres per square metre in 24 hours. The worst was expected until 6 a.m., when the yellow warning was issued, so emergency services expect the situation to improve.
However, the Mungia City Council has recommended not to park or walk in the vicinity of the river basin and has made the Legarda School playground available to residents to leave their cars.
Even in the Bilbao River , Sangroniz has reached the orange level when the tide reached its peak at 06:36.
According to data released by Euskalmet, 41 litres per square metre have been deposited in Mungia in six hours, 36 in Urduliz and 16 in Aretxabaleta.
