Rain in Spain

Yes, it's here as well.  Flash floods, houses under water, cars washed away.....

El País newspaper has more on the story....

We haven't been out today so don't know what the river is like down in Yátor.

The only flooding we've seen has been our pool which has overflowed but is designed to overflow into the acequia.

Last winter was the driest for 60 or so years,  this summer has been extremely long and hot, the ground is very hard and dry and I don't think much of this rain will have soaked in.  Hence the flooding.  I suppose the next lot of rain will have a better chance as the ground should be more absorbent.
