    Valencia, 16 days after the passing of the DANA

    Cloudy water after the rains of the new DANA in La Albufera, on November 14, 2024, in Valencia, Valencian Community (Spain). Last October 29, a DANA devastated the province of Valencia. The country's worst cold drop in a century resulted in 216 fatalities. Yesterday, another DANA passed through Valencia, much milder than the previous one. Cullera has been the municipality that has registered more rainfall exceeding 90 liters per square meter. Although yesterday, the AEMET activated the red alert in Valencia, today it has lowered it to yellow after the passage of the DANA. Also, the mobility of private vehicles is restricted from yesterday until 18 hours today. Valencia, Spain on November 14, 2024. Photo by Eduardo Manzana/Europa Press/ABACAPRESS.COM
