Almost two weeks after the Special Civil Protection Plan for flooding in Castilla-La Mancha (Pricam) Due to the effects of Borrasca Jana, this Saturday Martinho continues to make his own in the region, especially in the provinces of Toledo and Guadalajara, with numerous incidents in several areas of the channels of the Tajo River and the Alberche River.
One of the most conflicting points is, again, the surroundings of Talavera de la Reina, where the flow of the Tajo river passes right now exceeding 900 or 950 cubic meters per second (m³/s), as ABC has been able to know, although the control stations of the control of the control of the Tajo Hydrographic Confederation (CHT) They do not work, precisely by the force of water. A city in which the Civil Protection alert activated on Friday is still in force due to the risk of flooding in the vicinity of the channel by rain and the increase of unwins.
The mayor of Talavera de la Reina, José Julián Gregorio, has reiterated to the population that the situation of the Tagus “is very complicated” because the flow does not stop increasing and, as reported from the CHT, although the flow is stabilized, “a decrease is not expected, it can even increase” due to the rains, and high flows are expected for several days.
Gregorio recalled that Civil Protection, Local Police and Firefighters are operational to attend to any incidence and has again recommended that travel, not cross floods and respect traffic cuts, as well as not carrying out activities in channels and their proximities. In this area, One of the buildings affected by the flood of the Tajo River has been the garage of the National Police Police Station in Talavera de la Reinaas informed to this newspaper the 112 Emergency Service of Castilla-La Mancha, which has suffered the entry of water into its units.
In fact, the Talaverano councilor has participated this Saturday morning in a new meeting of the Operational Coordination Center (CECOP) Among the different administrations, under the coordination of the Government of Castilla-La Manchaheld in the advanced command post located in Escalona, where the concern for the flood of the Alberche River is also followed as it passes through the municipality.
In this area, that of La Ribera del Alberche, this Saturday will be sent again to the neighbors a new alert for SMS to their mobile phones to warn of the floods and to remember prevention measures. In addition, the Escalona City Councilas reported on its social networks, it has had to evacuate new houses due to prevention in a more rear line of recent weeks, and help people who had returned to houses already evacuated.
The sports hall is still open 24 hours a day to serve the people who need it. There is also the advanced command post of 112 for the entire region, with all activated public services and volunteers: Civil Guard, Civil Protection, Firefighters, Sanitary, Red Cross, reinforcement security.
The CHT has risen to 370 m³/s the land unworthy on the banks of the pool and does not rule out having to expand more, since the reservoirs touch 90% and the contributions of the rivers and streams are huge. “Although we do not see strong rains in our town or in our surroundings, the problem is the torrential rains accumulated yesterday in the head in the province of Ávila, and in the north and west of the Community of Madrid, which can take up to 24 hours to reach the towns of the Alberche,” they explain from the City Council of Escalona.
In addition, the nearby streams come at this time with a lot of flow, which even puts more pressure on the flow rate of the pool, so the authorities continue to ask for maximum caution to the citizenship, which they recommend not to approach the channels of rivers and streams due to the risk of the flood of water.
In the province of Toledo, as indicated by the 112 Emergency Service of Castilla-La Manchathere have been four more incidents due to small floods in homes, land, crops and water rafts or obstacles on roads and roads, next to the riverbed and streams, in Talavera, Escalona and Santa Cruz de Retamar.
