In the small Valencian town of Utiel, torrential rains led to extreme flooding, claiming lives and forcing residents to seek safety in their homes.
Miguel Aleixandre described the scene as he returned home to find the streets under 30cm of water, which later increased to a deadly height.
Inmaculada Haba quickly realized the alarming rise of the river near her home, stating that the preventative measures previously taken proved ineffective against the flooding.
As the danger escalated, the state meteorological office issued urgent warnings to stay away from watercourses, highlighting the critical nature of the situation.
