A severe storm hit a popular tourist destination in Spain, transforming roads into waterways, submerging cars, and causing chaos. Shocking footage captured pedestrians being knocked down by rushing water on the streets of Jaen, inundated by heavy rain last night. The deluge led to a surreal scene where drivers navigated around floating wheelie bins in flooded streets while locals and tourists braved a sudden hailstorm.
People in distress could be seen in videos shouting for assistance as the powerful water currents swept them off their feet, making it difficult for them to regain their balance. The intense storm, lasting approximately 20 minutes, caused widespread disruption in Jaen and its vicinity, with emergency services responding to 110 calls reporting flooding in underground structures.
A dramatic image captured a man being carried along a street, passing by a parked car with its windshield wipers in full motion. The forceful storm uprooted paving stones and submerged outdoor seating areas of cafes and bars, previously bustling with people enjoying the sunny weather.
The aftermath of the storm left the city in disarray, with damages visible across the area. As of this morning, it was uncertain whether there were any injuries resulting from the extreme weather event.
