Flash floods have hit Spain after heavy periods of rain across the country.
Holiday hotspots such as Madrid, Murcia and Valencia have experienced dramatic weather in recent days. In Murcia, the rainfall has turned some streets to rivers while buildings have been flooded and countless roads have been closed.
According to the Daily Record, emergency services were forced to battle to drain the inundated streets as the period of bad weather continues following a period of drought. Some locations in the Valencia region saw more rainfall during a few days last week than they did in the previous six months, according to national weather agency AEMET.

The town of Ontinyent recorded the highest rainfall in one day for more than 100 years. A total of 130 litres per square metre fell in 24 hours, the forecasters state.
The flooding throughout last week claimed at least 14 lives as 21 rivers overran their banks. There were at least 300 landslides triggered across the country as rain continued to fall upon terrain that had been parched for months.
The wet weather is set to continue this week in areas including Madrid and Valencia, according to the Met Office. However, conditions are set to be less severe.
