Torrential Rain Forces Madrid Residents into Lockdown

Madrid's mayor has advised all residents to stay at home as the capital prepares for torrential rain and storms, with a maximum red alert issued by the national weather agency. Up to 120 litres per square metre of rain could fall over 12 hours in Madrid. LaLiga suspended a match due to the alert, and emergency services have confined residents to their homes in Alcanar due to flooding.
