Emergencies warns of an episode of rain, wind, coastal phenomena and falling temperatures 

 

A cold air mass has moved in to our region from northern Europe, causing a general drop in temperatures. An episode of rain will be accompanied by coastal phenomena of wind and waves along the entire coast.

The rains will affect the entire province of Castellón, Valencia and the north of Alicante. They could be strong with records of 40 l/m2 and accumulated amounts of up to 120 l/m2 in 12 hours, especially in the north of Castellón, south of Valencia and north of Alicante. Along the entire coast there will be winds with gusts of 50 to 60 km/h.

Caution is advised as the rains that have fallen throughout the Region mean that the channels may become active more quickly than usual.

Please exercise caution on the road, avoid crossing fords and underpasses and follow the warnings given by the authorities during these days.

It is recommended that you pay special attention to culverts and underpasses of rivers and ravines and to areas close to the coastline.

 

Advice to the population

Try to stay informed about how the situation develops.
Remove vehicles from areas that may be flooded.
Stay away from riverbanks and ravines.
Follow the advice of the relevant authorities.
Never attempt to cross a ford, flooded area or underpass.
