Blowing a gale, torrential rain, thunder, lightening - flood warnings. Temperature has dropped by 20 degrees in 2 days. I was swimming in the Med 2 days ago. Now we're sitting in the van and the dog has demanded we switch the electric fire on! :(

The return to Winter weather is supposed to last until next Sunday!
The fireworks were cancelled this afternoon as too dangerous and they are really worried about the Falla in the city centre being seriously damaged as it is so tall! :cry:

I've got rain forecast tomorrow until about 6pm then again Wednesday until around 12noon. Then just sun /cloud until weekend full sun. looks to be worse up your way.

Certainly not good for the Fallas if you are getting the wind we had today.:(

We were travelling from Aguilas to Altea, yesterday, but because of the atrocious driving conditions, pulled off the motorway at Marjal Costa Blanca. Not our idea of an ideal campsite, but a safe haven, with underfloor heating in the shower blocks. Rain was torrential again in the night, but the weather's just grey and windy now, so we're going to press on to Altea.

Agree about Marjal, however they have the best doggie facilities I have ever seen on a site - even a dedicated doggie bedding washing machine in the doggie bathroom and a mobile vet. Hope the weather clears up soon - it's just not normal is it.

More heavy rain and gusting winds during the night at Totana.
Even with the levelling jacks down we were rocking.
This morning it is grey and drizzly but the wind has dropped a bit.

Forecast for tomorrow onwards is back to the usual sun. (y):D

In our village a little inland on the Costa Blanca North yesterday we had 126mm of rain yesterday.
To put it another way, that's 126 litres of water on each square metre of ground.
That is a just a lunatic amount of rain.
But today, clouds clearing and sun staring to peep out again.

Yes ,they've got the opposite problem I was reading some weeks back. A lack of rainfall & the driest winter for God knows how many centuries.:D2
