Spain and Portugal Mobilize for New Storm Amidst Ongoing Flood Crisis
Spain and Portugal are preparing for another severe weather event as Storm Marta approaches, following the devastation caused by Storm Leonardo. The recent storms have resulted in at least two fatalities and displaced over 11,000 residents. In response, Portugal has mobilized more than 26,500 rescuers, and three municipalities have postponed their presidential vote due to the impending storm. Both countries have issued warnings for further flooding, with heavy rains and strong winds expected. The national meteorological agencies have placed several regions on high alert, particularly in southern Spain and along Portugal's coastline, where waves could reach up to 13 meters. The situation is exacerbated by already saturated grounds, increasing the risk of landslides and flash floods.
