581.5mm Grazalema, but it's not an official figure yet.

Grazalema is living up to its reputation and wettest today, with 381.5mm so far to 4pm - which has broken its previous record for 24hr Rainfall of 337mm set in 1985. Data via AEMET.

Grazalema has recorded 367mm, but I suspect that will be exceeded significantly. For location, Grazalema is located just west of Ronda in Malaga provice. It's a bad bad situation.

More heavy rain in the forecast models for Iberia.

Forecast from Aemet agrees, very wet for Spain for the next week to ten days. I have never such a wet and unsettled winter here.

5th named storm in just over a week. Now we have Kristin moving across Spain. We had Joseph yesterday and no one even realised. This naming system is getting out of hand. Any wave/or low pressure system headed this way is now named? Surely that defeats the purpose which is to name major...

There has even been considerable falls of snow in southern Spain, at low levels too. Some social media reported snow in Malaga, but it was false as it was hail and 10c!! It has been a very wet and colder than usual winter so far, much colder for some in Spain.

Happy to see it back :)

This morning at 1000hrs, a nice 24c along the east coast of Spain.

There could be cold weather pushing down all the way from Siberia toward the end of the model runs. 10 days is a long way out, but the ECMWF looks much colder than the American models at 10 days. One for central and western Europe to watch, but there is not much agreement at the moment.
