Bad weather hit Catalonia this Monday.
The Valencia region and Catalonia were, again this Monday, swept by a new storm. Between Tarragona and the Vallès region, north of Barcelona, there were even four storms which caused a lot of damage and required numerous emergency interventions requested more than a thousand times in a few hours.
The weather gives no respite in Tarragona.

And it was in the Valls region, renowned for being the epicenter of calçot cultivation, that emergency services intervened to clear tons of earth and sludge from the A-27 motorway after an impressive landslide.
Images released by Catalan firefighters and the Spanish state roads service showed the extent of the damage caused by this landslide.
But the general mobilization made it possible, at the end of the day, to see the reopening of traffic within a few hours after the A-27 could be completely cleared of the earth which covered the bitumen in the morning.
