Overview
- Following Tuesday night's red warnings plus an ES-Alert on Tenerife, the Canary Islands government placed Tenerife and Gran Canaria under regional emergency for flooding.
- The Spanish government authorized the Military Emergency Unit on Tuesday, with teams pumping water, clearing debris and deploying heavy gear in Gran Canaria and moving into north Tenerife.
- CECOES 112 reported 1,783 weather-related incidents across the archipelago since last week, including rescues, road washouts, landslides and power cuts.
- Gran Canaria saw the sharpest impacts with 32 reservoirs spilling and 20 roads closed, leaving areas such as Fataga and Arteara confined or cut off and forcing evacuations in spots like Tacoronte's El Pris.
- AEMET said the storm would begin to withdraw on Wednesday, though slow, convective cells over steep terrain can pin heavy rain in one valley while nearby areas stay drier, which could spark fresh local floods and keep classes online in several islands.
