Spain: Torrential Rains Trigger Severe Flooding in Cártama, Málaga

In Cártama, in Málaga’s Guadalhorce Valley, torrential rain caused flooding on Saturday evening, December 27. The rapidly rising Guadalhorce River flooded streets and homes in the Aljaima, Doña Ana and Estación de Cártama districts, forcing residents to stay on alert overnight and take measures to protect their properties. Some residents were relocated after their homes were inundated. The river reached a record level overnight, peaking at 5.7 meters with a flow of more than 1,000 cubic meters per second, triggering a red alert. Water levels fell by more than 60 percent by Sunday morning, easing conditions locally, although yellow alerts remain in place upstream. Several other rivers in the province also saw rising levels but have since moved out of danger thresholds as emergency services and residents work to return to normal.

Canada: Near-Zero Visibility as Blizzard Hits Southern Manitoba

A fast-moving winter storm brought blizzard conditions to southern Manitoba, with winds up to 90 km/h and heavy blowing snow forcing highway and school closures, stranding drivers, and disrupting flights and essential services on Thursday, December 18. RCMP strongly discouraged travel as near-zero visibility led to multiple crashes and vehicles stuck on rural roads, while snowfall totals ranged from 8 cm in Winnipeg to nearly 19 cm in some areas. Conditions were further complicated by power outages and widespread delays as the storm swept across the Prairies.
