Neighbors and volunteers have worked hard to clean the streets, while the State Security Forces and the Armed Forces focus on trying to locate those who several days later are still not located and on jobs such as those at the shopping center. Bonaire, where the underground parking is still completely flooded. On the other hand, the solidarity has traveled through Spain with thousands of people making donations and donating food, water, cleaning materials and clothing for the affected population.
But the rain continues without giving respite in areas of the Mediterranean. This Sunday the red level warnings were activated again for “high intensity storms” of more than 90 liters per square meter on the southern coast of Valencia.

The Aemet notices for this Monday
For this Monday, the rains will continue in the Mediterranean. As Aemet warns on its website, there may be showers and storms «Locally strong and/or persistent on the coasts and pre-coastals of Catalonia and northern Levante». It is not ruled out that they move to Huesca. There may also be “locally persistent” rainfall in Extremadura.
That will be the most significant thing in the forecast for this Monday, although Aemet is constantly updating it. According to the assessment of the spokesperson for the State Meteorological Agency, Rubén del Campo, collected by Europa Press, DANA will disappear starting this Monday. Although the weather will be calmer, the situation will not be “completely stable.”
Regardless of how the situation on the Mediterranean coast evolves, Aemet also expects that a frontal system will approach the west of the peninsula and leave rainfall in Galicia, western Andalusia, Castilla y León and Extremadura. Likewise, they are not ruled out rainfall in “surrounding areas” to the western central system.
As for temperatures, “they will decrease in the western third of the peninsula” and will increase in western Andalusia, but in general there will be few changes.
According to Meteored, the week will be rainy in Catalonia, the Balearic Islands and the Valencian Community with rainfall of up to 30 l/m2. The last blows of DANA, they say, will be suffered by Castellón and Tarragona with accumulations of up to 80 liters per square meter.
