    In The Wake Of Floods Disaster - Valencia

    Several people unblock a sewer in the industrial park, on November 14, 2024, in Alfafar, Valencia, Valencia, Valencia, Spain. Last October 29, a DANA hit the province of Valencia. The worst cold drop in the country 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.

                    15 Days After The Passage Of The DANA Over Valencia

                    Two people work in a workshop to try to fix their personal belongings, on November 13, 2024, in Paiporta, Valencia, Valencian Community (Spain). On October 29, a tropical storm (DANA) hit the province of Valencia. The country's worst cold spell in a century claimed 215 lives, and 23 people were reported missing. While the population tries to recover from the tragedy, the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) has activated a new orange alert for the arrival of a new DANA that will arrive from this afternoon-evening to Valencia and could leave ''very heavy and persistent'' rainfall. Although this time the alert is orange and not red, many municipalities have taken preventive measures such as the suspension of classes or the installation of sandbags as a preventive measure against overflowing rivers.
