Heavy rain has caused severe flooding in the city of Cadaques in the northeastern tip of Spain. The weather broke on Friday morning. According to the Spanish media, in a short period of time, up to 100 liters of water poured into one square meter.
The element did a lot of damage. The water washed away dozens of cars in the river, which had dried up earlier. The strong current, carrying cars and other objects, crashed into one of the bridges, creating a jam and increasing the scale of the destruction.
