Does anyone know if GA was affected by the horrendous flooding  ? Going out to GA this coming Monday

Have heard from someone in La Marina that they had no flooding so hopefully GA missed it as well.

Nothing here whatsoever, a small puddle that has now gone. Our thoughts are with Valencia

I think we are lucky that GA has no mountains behind it, it's known that moisture laden air is forced upwards to higher levels where the moisture condenses and then falls as rain on the lee side of the mountain, perhaps the absence of mountains spares us.

Arrived in GA a couple of hours ago, blue skies and 22° , they have had a lot of rain but no flooding, our house has had no water ingress. Did notice from the plane window that from Barcelona down to GA , the soil in the fields is dark  with moisture. GA is nice and peaceful.
