• Spain’s AEMET labeled the Santander rainfall “exceptional,” recording 63.6 L/m² in one hour, the second-highest hourly total on record for the city and Cantabria.
• Cantabria’s 112 managed 95 rain-related incidents as flooded tunnels shut key routes, including a 5 km closure on the S-20 at La Albericia, before traffic gradually recovered.
• Two people in Santander—a 57-year-old motorcyclist and a 44-year-old municipal e-bike user—were injured and taken to Hospital Universitario Marqués de Valdecilla, according to local police.
• In Guadalajara, the University of Guadalajara measured up to 80 L/m² in central areas, with Line 1 light rail and the macrobús halted for nearly two hours and more than 150 tianguis stalls reporting losses.
• Guadalajara firefighters found human remains while draining a canal in Jardines del Bosque, and the State Fiscalía opened an investigation.
