Spain flooding: New weather warnings issued - as country counts flooding cost

The latest warnings for parts of southwestern Spain come just two weeks after flash flooding in the country killed more than 200 people.

A weather warning has been issued for parts of Spain, as the country counts the cost of recent flooding. The orange warnings are in place for parts of southwestern Spain - the area around Seville down towards Gibraltar. Up to 8cm of rain could fall within 12 hours, but the weekend looks much more settled in the country. The latest warnings come just two weeks after flash flooding in Valencia and other parts of the country killed more than 200 people. Malaga saw 14.

Emergency services in the province have moved 3,000 people from homes at risk of flooding close to the Guadalhorce River in the west of the city. Jamie Marchant, 29, from Caerphilly in South Wales travelled to Malaga last Wednesday. He told Sky News that 'debris' had been left behind by the recent rainfall in the region. 'Everyone is pitching in to clean up and some shops are opening as usual,' he added.
