The unsettled conditions are forecast to continue over the weekend.

The areas of Castellón, Alicante, Albacete, Murcia and Málaga are on an Orange Alert from the Spanish Meteorological Office today.

Gandía and Sagunto ports were also closed. The alert remains in place for Almeria until tomorrow.

Under the Orange Alert the chance of torrential rain runs at 70% with rainfall of 40 litres per square metre forecast.

Cloudy or very cloudy conditions continue across the country today, with moderate showers, heavy in places but less frequent in the north during the morning.

It will be slightly cooler too, and the Mediterranean coast will see winds of upto 70kms/hour.
