The first vice president of the Andalusian regional government and emergencies minister, Antonio Sanz, activated on Sunday the pre-emergency phase, operational situation 0, of the Andalusian Flood Risk Emergency Plan, in view of the forecast of intense and persistent rain associated with storm Bruna, according to El Faro de Motril. The measure is preventive: the Emergencies Agency, through the 112 service, is stepping up monitoring of waterways.
AEMET, Spain's state weather agency, maintains orange warnings for rain and storms on Monday, November 9 in Andalusia, Castile and León and Extremadura, and yellow warnings in other regions, including Galicia, Castile-La Mancha and the Community of Madrid, according to Libertad Digital.
In Huelva, the orange warning applies between 00:00 and 11:59 in Aracena, Andévalo and Condado and the coast, with up to 30 liters per square meter in one hour. In Aracena and the Sierra Norte of Seville up to 80 liters are forecast in twelve hours, with an orange warning between 03:00 and 23:59, according to El Faro de Motril.
AEMET expects the episode to last at least until Wednesday, November 11, with accumulations of between 100 and 200 liters per square meter in some parts of western Andalusia, according to COPE, citing EFE. The pages consulted do not yet include any damage assessment for Andalusia.
