Overview
- AEMET has an active special advisory for October 8–12 warning of very strong, persistent rainfall with local flash‑flood risk across Spain’s eastern third and the Balearic Islands.
- Initial showers are expected from Wednesday night in eastern Castilla‑La Mancha and interior Valencia before spreading Thursday to coastal Catalonia, the Valencian coast, Ibiza and Formentera, Murcia and parts of eastern Andalusia.
- The area around Cabo de la Nao, between southern Valencia and northern Alicante, is highlighted for potentially significant accumulations, with very intense rain especially along the Alicante coast.
- AEMET urges close monitoring of updates because small shifts in the DANA’s position and surface winds could change which coastal sectors are hardest hit each day.
- Regional forecasts show contrasts, with much of Galicia dry on Wednesday and Granada turning wetter from Thursday, while cities such as Rosario and Santa Fe in Argentina remain dry and stable.
