Spain and Portugal are preparing for Storm Marta with heavy rain, strong winds, and flooding. This comes days after floods from Storm Leonardo killed two people—one in Portugal and one in Spain—and forced over 11,000 residents to leave their homes. Portuguese authorities have sent out 26,500 rescuers ahead of Marta. Three Portuguese municipalities postponed Sunday’s presidential vote due to bad weather. Portugal faces orange alerts for heavy rain and waves up to 13 meters high. Eight mainland districts are on alert. Cities face risks of landslides and floods as the ground is already saturated. In Spain, the south and northwest are also under orange alert, with gusts reaching 110 km/h, said Juan Manuel Moreno, president of Andalusia. After flying over flood-hit areas, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said “difficult days” are coming and was "bowled over at seeing the endless rain." Portugal’s Prime Minister Luis Montenegro said the damage has passed four billion euros ($4.7bn). This follows Storm Kristin earlier, which caused deaths and power outages. The Tagus and Sado rivers in Portugal remain under severe pressure. Jose Pimenta Machado from the Environment Agency said Portugal’s dams released water equal to the country’s annual use in just three days. The new storm adds more challenges after heavy rains disrupted transport and closed roads, forcing many to avoid travel.
