Areas in the east of Spain saw a year's worth of rainfall in under 12 hours.
The number of people killed in flash floods in Spain is now at least 205.
Rescuers are searching for survivors after a year's worth of rain arrived in one day - with the Valencia region worst-affected.

Meanwhile, Alan O'Reilly, from Carlow Weather, says just half the level of rain, which led to catastrophic flooding in Spain, would have a devastating impact in Ireland.

Mr. O'Reilly says even double that amount would be a major disaster here:
