Barcelona issues red alert weather warning | BBC News


The main airport in Barcelona, Spain has diverted 50 flights due to land there because of a rainstorm hitting the area.

This comes after the Spanish weather service issued a red alert for the region, in anticipation of torrential rain which they are starting to see.

More than 200 people were killed in Spain last week due to flooding in Valencia, which is the worst in Spain for decades.

Spanish rescuers are focusing their search for missing people on underground garages and a multi-storey car park following the floods.

The storm caught many victims in their vehicles on roads and in underground spaces such as car parks, tunnels and garages where rescue operations are particularly difficult.
