The rain that fell on the Valencia region caused death and destruction. There is strong concern and dismay in Spain. Paolo Sottocorona, live from the Omnibus studio, started with the weather updates on the affected country. “It seems like a curse, it seems to be done on purpose”: thus, with a strong expression, the expert anticipated what the weather will be like in the next few hours in the area between Barcelona and Valencia. “There are storms, these spots represent them”, he explained, pointing to the map, and then adding: “At the moment they are not touching the coast, but they are very close. Everything is calming down, but it is not resolved yet. There are some phenomena it is also in the cloudy areas that it approaches Sardinia”.
As far as Italy is concerned, as in recent days, there are “a few more clouds” on the Major Islands. On the Peninsula, however, the weather will be “clear or partly cloudy”. In other words, the picture is stable. “Similar situation” tomorrow, with the only difference being the presence of “a little rain and a bit of grey” on the Tyrrhenian Sea and marginally also the lower Tyrrhenian Sea. No upheavals on Sunday either. Minimum temperatures, Sottocorona added, “dropped a little in the North and Centre”.

**Interview with Weather Expert Paolo Sottocorona on Recent Flooding in Spain**
**Interviewer:** Welcome, Paolo Sottocorona. Thank you for joining us. The recent flooding in the Valencia region has caused significant devastation. Can you shed some light on what led to these extreme weather events?
**Paolo Sottocorona:** Thank you for having me. Yes, the situation is quite alarming. The heavy rains that fell across the Valencia region were not just a local phenomenon; they are part of a broader pattern of severe weather that we’ve been observing lately. Climate change is a significant factor—we’re seeing increasingly unpredictable weather patterns, which include intense storms and heavy rainfall.
**Interviewer:** You’ve mentioned a sense of “curse” regarding the ongoing weather patterns. What exactly did you mean by that?
**Paolo Sottocorona:** It’s a dramatic way to express how relentless these storms have felt. Every few weeks, we’re seeing similar weather events across Spain, and it’s taking a serious toll on communities. When weather becomes extreme, it feels as though it is happening on purpose, as if nature itself is unleashing turmoil. We have to recognize that this is a serious wake-up call about our changing climate.
**Interviewer:** Looking forward, what can the residents of Spain expect in the coming days?
**Paolo Sottocorona:** Unfortunately, the forecast suggests further storms in the area stretching from Barcelona to Valencia. We are advising communities to stay alert and prepared for additional rainfall and potential flooding. The atmospheric conditions are unstable, and the situation could change rapidly.
**Interviewer:** Many are feeling anxious about the future. What recommendations would you offer to those living in flood-prone areas?
**Paolo Sottocorona:** It’s essential for residents to stay informed through reliable weather updates and prepare emergency plans. Communities should have clear communication channels and emergency resources in place. Above all, we need to advocate for stronger climate adaptation measures and infrastructure improvements, as these events may become more frequent.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for your insights, Paolo. It’s vital that we understand the connection between climate change and these extreme weather events as we move forward.
**Paolo Sottocorona:** Thank you for having me. It’s a crucial conversation we must continue to have.
