The bad weather that has been felt in Galicia, Spain, with heavy rain and winds of more than 150 kilometers per hour, has led to the registration of 65 incidents since the early hours of Wednesday, revealed the 112 services of the Spanish autonomous community, cited by the local newspaper El Diario.
The majority of occurrences, 47, were recorded in the province of A Coruña.
Among the incidents were flooded houses and cars, rescues and accidents, mainly with falling trees.
The Brión Supramunicipal Emergency Group reported that, in the area where they operated, there were around 20 houses flooded after the two rivers in the municipality overflowed.
In Lousame, a woman had to be rescued from her own car. The river overflowed and caused the vehicle to be swept away by the current along a forest path.
