- On Friday October 10, AEMET activated a red alert for torrential rain in Alicante and Murcia, warning of possible flash flooding.
- The DANA 'Alice' is a high-altitude cold front causing unstable skies and sudden temperature drops, disrupting weather across the Valencian Community and eastern Spain.
- Forecasters say up to 180 litres may fall in 12 hours in parts of southeastern Spain, with Storm Alice already producing 44.8 litres in L'Albufera de Valencia and 39.8 litres in Catarroja.
- Officials are urging people to stay indoors and avoid flooded roads while local authorities and emergency services prepare for road closures, power cuts, evacuations, and classes suspended this Thursday.
- The worst is expected to pass by Saturday October 11, though orange alerts may remain in some coastal areas following recent flooding and Storm Gabrielle.
