Roquetas floods in 20 minute storm

Roquetas de Mar suffered a cloudburst yesterday which flooded the place in about 20 minutes.

A heavy hailstorm blocked the storm gutters, which lead to water going everywhere.

Roquetas is a horrible place in the rain – the whole bottom half of the city just floods, and the storm gutters, such as they are, go from the big new ones to the old small ones, forcing the excess water up in spouts along the avenues. Very pretty if you’re dry inside a bar watching, horrible if you’re in a car.
