It comes as Storm Olivier continues its trajectory over Spain today, threatening winds of up to 100km/hr.

The most serious alerts are facing the province of Cadiz, 90% of which has been placed under an orange alert by state weather agency Aemet.

Aemet uses a traffic light system of yellow, orange and red, to measure weather events, with red being the most severe, indicating an extreme risk to safety.

Cadiz is being warned of gales of between 70km/hr and 100km/hr for all of Thursday and until 6am on Friday.

In Malaga, this historic city of Ronda is under a yellow alert until the same time tomorrow, with Aemet predicting winds of up to 80km/hr.
The Costa del Sol is on a yellow alert from midnight tonight until 2.59pm Friday for rough sea conditions that could bring four-metre waves.
The Granda coastline to east, however, is on an orange alert from midnight until 8.59am Friday, with 70km/hr gusts to bring waves of up to four metres.
