Spain Faces Torrential Rains and Evacuations
News summary

Spain is experiencing another onslaught of torrential rains, prompting evacuations and school closures just two weeks after devastating floods claimed over 200 lives. The national weather service, AEMET, has placed the provinces of Malaga and Tarragona on red alert, predicting up to 180 millimeters of rain in 12 hours, which could lead to renewed flooding. Authorities in Malaga have evacuated 3,000 residents near the Guadalhorce River, while schools in Valencia and Andalusia remain closed. The Valencia region, still struggling with clogged drainage systems from the previous storm, is particularly vulnerable to new floods. The economic impact of the recent and ongoing weather disruptions is significant, with damage costs running into tens of billions of euros. Amidst the weather chaos, the Billie Jean King Cup tennis finals between Spain and Poland in Malaga have been postponed.
