Spain Weather - Monday December 20 2010

17 Spanish provinces remain on weather alert today, Monday.

The rain on Saturday left as much as 150 litres per square metre in several parts of Málaga province. The A-7051 was closed for a time at Churriana.

Heavy rain will be seen in the SW of the country, Andalucia and Ceuta, this afternoon, and there will be strong winds complicating matters on the Canaries.

All the weather alerts for rain are yellow, with the exception of Cádiz which is on orange alert.

Cloudy in the west of the country, with rain less likely the further east you go, although there is the chance of a shower on the Baleares later in the day.

The snow line will be between 1400 and 1000m in the NW and between 1300 and 1700m in the centre of the country.

South or SW winds moderate to strong, with strong gusts in the Strait on the Canaries and in SW Andalucia. Elsewhere winds will be weak to moderate.
