Fresh storms and heavy rain hit Spain and Portugal on Saturday, bringing floods, evacuations, and major travel troubles. Storm Marta pushed over 26,500 rescue workers into action across Portugal, dealing with rising waters, landslides, and floods. Flood alerts stayed active in both countries. Many roads were blocked, trains stopped, and thousands of people had to leave their homes. In Spain, Andalusia faced an orange alert due to severe storms, with over 11,000 evacuated. "The situation is complex," said Andalusia’s regional president Juan Manuel Moreno. Farming suffered heavily, with repair costs expected to top 500 million euros. The historic Roman bridge in Cordoba was shut, and a Sevilla football match was postponed for safety. Evacuees found shelter in gyms nearby. Portugal's civic life also took a hit as three areas postponed a presidential vote because of the storms. Flood danger remains high along the Tagus river. Tragically, a 46-year-old Portuguese emergency volunteer drowned while crossing flooded waters, becoming the first confirmed death from Storm Marta. This adds to previous storm deaths: five from Storm Kristin last week, and one earlier this week from Storm Leonardo, which also forced 1,100 evacuations. Prime Minister Luis Montenegro called 2026 a "particularly unusual year" with "exceptionally violent" weather. Officials revealed huge water releases from dams equal to a year's consumption in just three days. The Iberian Peninsula faces growing risks from climate change, with more extreme heatwaves and rains. Nearby Morocco has also seen severe storms, displacing around 150,000 people in the northwest recently.
