Weather warning Sun 19 Jan 2020 Valencia area (1 Viewer)

[namwaldog]

The rain has been stopped for a couple of hours ( as forecast) here at Benicassim and it isn't anywhere near as windy as the forecast says it should be.
Took advantage to fill and empty and had a walk down to the promenade. The tide was on its way out but there was debris on the promenade indicating the sea had been as high as I ever seen it..

 

[busby]

Where is Bennicassim please.
I am heading for Benidorm old town on Monday night.
Cheers

Just north of Valencia,,BUSBY.

Moved off of the wild camping area at Cullera around midday. I would say about 60% of vans had left.
Had a civil defence 4x4 drive very slowly through the vans possibly noting down van details.
We were planning on heading down to Almerianregion for a while so drove through some atrocious rain and winds around Oliva area but then had a reasonable run down. Now at Roquetas de Mar. Plenty of vans here.
Forecast much better down here,

Where is Bennicassim please.

We're at El Pinet, camperpark just south of Alicante where it's currently cloudy but warm and dry - but the locals are expecting it to get a bit rough later and overnight. We moved down here from Valencia to try and avoid the weather system we've been watching on Ventusky for a few days - agree it looks like it's gonna be a bit naughty up there. I think snow is a bit of exageration although it's probably quite likely in the coastal mountains, just not here on the coast.

Funsters Derek & June (Portland) are expecting to fly in to Alicante late tonight - think that might be optimistic!

Good having a wee chat with you yesterday.
We are now down the road a little in Torrevieja and it has been p. Sing down since 6pm.

Thanks mate..... Never thought of that!!!!!!!
Just thought that this name was a shortened or nickname for a Benidorm based motorhome site.
As I am supposed to be flying into Alicante tomorrow night and then making my way to Benidorm Old town, if this was a local campsite within Benidorm I just thought they night have an accurate and up-to-date scenario, rather than the somewhat , or what appears to be, doomsday and Armageddon type reports.

I am coming to you "live" from my hotel room here in benidorm. Can tell you it's blowing a bloody gale, rain has started but not heavy as yet.
A websearch on local news will tell you Alicante airport had a fire in the week so although it reopened it's in a mess. Today they were closing it for 24hours.
Only your flight / holiday company can give you an answer on what will happen tomorrow, best to check with them direct.
Otherwise the all inclusive bar is keeping the wife occupied. ?

I would think its a bit of both, I suspect after the fire there is loose debris, it should all be finished by Wednesday, ? but we have a lot to put up with in the meantime. ?



Our front door is about about 16 centimetres higher than the prom and about 150m from it. ?
? This is why people like to rent it for their holidays Chris. ? Bob.

Is that your Hymer ?

We are on a site not far from Dénia. So far just a lot of rain and strong winds.

We have plenty of tea bags though!

Live update from the Tonka hotel suite.
All good here, slept like a baby.
Outdoor inspections shows 1 palm tree blown over.

Hope all are ok on the campsites.

Gotta go, the breakfast buffet is open.

 

[MotorhomersRus]

Been rough here above Valencia, blown a gale all night with heavy rain and there seems to be no let up.
Heard it’s worse in some places further south and some places have snow. There are also reports of awnings being lost on campsites. Stay safe everyone !

 

[Malcolm Bolt]

My concerns came to nought. Loads of water flowing past but never above kerb onto pitch. Bit of a lake across road further along. We did rock about quite a bit but slept well.
Hope everyone else is OK too.

There seems to be a lot more to come yet, lasting through until Wednesday at least. If you run the Ventusky simulation, it's looking pretty grim....

Earlier?
As in when?
It was blowing a hoolie as we went past yesterday.
The reason you've got blue sky is because the clouds were travelling too fast for your box brownie (other camera's are available).
We're now in the desert??? that is the Cabo De Gata National Park. Its been hissing it down on and off all morning and there are poodles in the road.

Hope you’re not at Camping Cabo de Gata? They were flooded very badly back in September last time it rained hard.?

 

[Emmit]

No. We're not there.
We're at an official camperstop in the park that ISN'T on Campercontact or Camperstop (but withing the Park.

Go on, guess.
