We set out in the car yesterday in GA about 17:30 to visit a restaurant on the Carabassi strip, used the car as it had started raining, never seen rain like it, decided to head for higher ground so went up to Av Escandinavia, big mistake, the road was a river , was fearful of the car being swamped so managed to pull into the car park opposite the piedra restaurant , had to park up at the kerb at the exit as many other cars were coming into the car park to escape the water, was an anxious half hour before the rain stopped and we crept down to the Carabassi strip and staggered into the Indian. I thought I'd seen ridiculous rainfall in GA before but this was something else.

On one of the FB Gran Alacant groups there's a video of the road that runs along side the Clot showing the water leve above the pavement, I read that GA had about 15 litres of water per square metre in less than an hour and Los Arensles had 23 litre per square metre. I heard that the Unide supermarket up Cardiac Hill was flooded.
