Marbella has been placed on yellow alert for storms and rain as more bad weather is due to hit over the next 24 hours

The Spanish Meterological Office  – AEMET – has warned that showers and storms are expected to be frequent and intense overnight on the Costa del Sol, and there will also be a drop in temperature. Other regions of Spain, including the Pyrenees and Levante, will also be affected.

The rain is expected to ease off by Saturday lunchtime, with sunny intervals expected later in the day.

Last weekend’s rainfall saw flash flooding in Marbella, as well as Coin and Alhaurin El Torre.
