Heavy rain hit Catalonia and the area around Barcelona, where at least two people have reportedly died. One person is still missing. Flash floods from the weekend flooded streets, homes and roads, causing extensive damage in Barcelona, Girona and other areas. Tagesspiegel ↗
The most serious consequences were reported in Tordera, where one person died, and in the wider Barcelona area. The missing person was recorded in Pineda. Firefighters responded to flooded vehicles and buildings and carried out 226 rescue operations. In some places, the past day was the rainiest in the last two decades. El Mundo ↗
Authorities issued the highest level of weather warning and sent three ES-Alert emergency notifications to residents of several areas. The warning also covered the comarques of Vallès Oriental, Maresme, Selva, Baix Empordà and Gironès. The main risk was a further rise in river levels and their overflow, including in the Besòs river basin. El Mundo ↗
The bad weather also significantly disrupted transport. Most lines of the Rodalies rail network in Catalonia were not operating normally, with damage affecting mainly sections around Barcelona and the coast. Landslides occurred on mountain slopes, and the metropolitan metro network also experienced problems. El Pais ↗
The weather situation remains tense. Authorities urged residents to keep following warnings, avoid flooded areas and follow the instructions of rescue services.
