The State Meteorological Agency has activated the orange alert on the north coast of the province of Alicante, due to the risk of storms and probable episodes of hail and storms. According to the AEMET, rainfall could accumulate up to 40 mm per hour until midnight.
Given this forecast, the Town hall It has activated all the usual preventive measures, especially in the most flood-prone areas such as Arenal. Also the mayor José Chulvi, and the councilor for Citizen Security and Emergency Prevention, Pepa Gisbert, have held a coordination meeting with the Local Police to specify the means of response available both at the municipal level and at the Civil Protection and Red Cross levels.
Citizens are advised to take all possible precautions to avoid material damage (check terrace drains and downspouts), avoid access through ravines and floodplains and follow the instructions of the security forces regarding security.
And they have not removed the fences of the first Montañar so that the people of the area can leave the car there, in these circumstances, up high to avoid its destruction in the event of a flood. Bari and via Augusta are flooded and cars have to be removed from garages. It would be desirable that the advertising remove the part of fences every certain section so that cars can park there in cases of alert and the rainy port
All these coordination meetings are very good. They are positive. Also, they would be even more effective if the sewers were clean. You have to take a walk through Customs and, for example, in Cristo del Mar street. Too much dirt that the water will transfer to the sea. A shame
