Tarragona is further north than Valencia – where the worst flooding hit last week which has killed more than 200 people.

Orange rain warnings are in place from Castellon up to Tarragona with the Catalan city forecast for 40mm of rain.

A red rain warning was in place for Valencia on Sunday night, with orange and yellow warnings as far north as Barcelona.

Over 200 people have died from Tuesday’s floods and thousands have had their homes destroyed by the wall of water and mud.

At least 60 of the dead were in Paiporta, the epicentre of the disaster.

King Felipe today visited Paiporta with angry locals throwing mud at him and protesting at a lack of support.
