Weather alert for Spain’s Costa del Sol: Heavy rain brings bank holiday washout

Heavy rain is forecast for the Costa del Sol and other areas of Andalucia over the next two days.

State weather agency Aemet has issued a series of alerts over the deluge, which has been affecting much of the region since Wednesday.

From 9pm tonight, the Costa del Sol will be under a yellow-level alert for rain and storms, which will continue into Friday.

Forecasters predict up to 15mm of rainfall could fall within an hour.

The identical warning is in place for the Guadalhorce valley, which includes inland areas such as Coin.

Also under the same warning are Ronda and the Costa de la Luz between Sotogrande and Barbate in Cadiz.

It comes as Spain began a so-called ‘puente’ (bridge) bank holiday weekend today.

May 1 is a national holiday in the country. When it falls on a Thursday, it is extended over the Friday, creating a four-day weekend.
