River bursts its banks as floods in Spain continue

River bursts its banks as floods in Spain continue
OK, so this afternoon, it's now late afternoon, it's 5:15 in Ponderola and we have here the Rio Ponderola, which is as you can see is getting a lot bigger, faster, wider because of the amount of water that's coming down from the mountains. I don't think the storms are over and this is a fairly fast flowing river, but it hasn't been a pass by river for a very long time. So this is really very much an unknown quantity because this river at the moment is not breaking its banks, but if it had significantly larger quantities of water, it probably would do. So nearly 12:00 on the day after the aftermath. And this is the Rio Pocarola, which I was being told last night is uniquely fed by three mountain ranges. So the water that falls here is disproportionately high as you can see the sun, it's coming through. It's frightening. This will all dry relatively quickly, although there is the suggestion that we'll have more rain today. That said, keep watching, keep preparing for any form of strange weather conditions that cause us all to be very apprehensive. But this is unusual. This is compared to the river of last night. This is much shallower and much less wide. But you never know. These things have a tendency to come and spark very quickly. Thank you for all your support.
