The State Meteorology Agency (AEMET) established communications by telephone with emergencies of the Generalitat and vice versa on October 29, the day when the DANA left 224 dead and three missing, up to 15 times to update the forecast, which was publishing in His social networks: it was at 7.31; at 7.36; at 7.54 twice; at 9.43; at 11.26; at 11.36; at 11.37; at 11.54; at 11.55; at 12.01; at 13.26; at 16.13; at 16.23; At 18.09 and 18.10. Aemet called the Emergency Coordination Center to notify the prolongation of the red notice that the agency had already communicated at 5:54 p.m., some calls that were not treated. Aemet had to hang the emergency calls of the Generalitat of 11.36, 11.37 and 11.51 because it was not heard well. Subsequently, they recovered and updated the connection.
The PP and the President of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón, released an edited version of the audio on Wednesday that some media published on the call made by a Aemet meteorologist at the Emergency Coordination Center (CCE) of the Generalitat at 12.01 in a new attempt to apologize for their management and transfer responsibility to the agency under the Ministry of Ecological Transition (MITECO).
A few minutes later, Aemet denounced in a statement that the audio was taken from context and insisted that he transferred all the information as he was updated both in that call that had been manipulated and in the 15 that were made in the central hours of the emergency.
Now, eldiario.es has had access to the audio with the complete call that once again denys Mazón when moving the meteorologist in its conversation with the emergency technique that “at 15 hours the worst will begin”, that the storm is I was going to displace “to the north of Valencia” (at no time there is talk of the Serranía de Cuenca as Mazón said on the day of the tragedy), to which the employee of the Autonomous Administration replies: “Now we also have to us also the consequences of rains with all flows. ”
During the conversation, Aemet’s worker comments with the emergency in the first place that they were having problems with communications: “Let’s see, tell me, you have been calling me, right? It is not the audio, you did not listen, ”says the emergency technique, to which the meteorologist who had already told them that they were trying to contact Aemet“ and the calls did not enter ”. From emergencies they recognized that they were having “problems right now with telephone communications.”
Next, from Aemet moves: “Let’s see, already, in principle, we are not going to dizzy with more notices. Those in the morning have been confirmed, but we have not made changes. I think it’s maritime, because if not, I wouldn’t have confirmed the morning, okay? I know it has been a bit jaleo, we have been going up to orange, well, we are now going to do the study of why we have been broadcasting on scale and not everything together. And well, to dizzy less. And well, the thing is, then, the expected thing, isn’t that the maximum rainfall will go north and especially inland. With a later afternoon in the interior north of Valencia. So, we have open reds and, well, we are in surveillance. At notice, in principle you can’t upload more, but hey, we can notify possibilities. ”
The meteorologist informs that “the city of Valencia seems that it will not happen, nor even the airport.” From emergencies they ask him about a time slot in which the storm is going worse, for example from 15 hours to 6 pm, to which from Aemet they answer: “At 15 hours in the afternoon the worst will begin as until 18.00 p.m. That midday strip in mid -afternoon. And starting from the most attached to that interior of the coastal part, and already pulling inside, as in the direction of Rincón de Ademuz (…) it seems that the part of the southern coast has already calmed down. And let’s see how the afternoon is evolving “, to which from emergencies they answer:” Now we also have the consequences of the rains with the flows, but well, little by little. ”
