Severe flooding and storms in Catalonia, Spain, have left at least two people dead and one missing, with authorities warning of ongoing risks as heavy rain persists. The deaths occurred in Tordera and Montornès del Vallès, near Barcelona, while a third person was swept away by a stream in Pineda de Mar, according to Catalan firefighters and regional president Salvador Illa.

Barcelona recorded its wettest day in at least 20 years, with Meteocat measuring 190.8 liters per square meter in the Raval district and 170.3 liters in the University Zone on Diagonal Avenue—the highest in 18 years. The Besòs river exceeded danger thresholds, prompting emergency alerts in multiple counties, including Vallès Oriental, Maresme, la Selva, Baix Empordà, and Gironès. Residents were urged to avoid non-essential travel as torrential rain continued into Sunday.

Catalan Civil Protection issued multiple Es-Alert messages, initially advising the suspension of all activities and travel from 20:00 on Saturday until 14:00 on Sunday. By Sunday afternoon, mobility restrictions were lifted in most areas, though Alt and Baix Empordà maintained them until 21:00. Firefighters conducted over 130 rescues, and rivers including the Ridaura and Daró overflowed in Girona.

On Monday, the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología warned of persistent heavy rain, with torrential downpours expected in Girona. Rail services, including Rodalies lines R1, R2, R4, R7, R8, and R11, faced disruptions, with some sections replaced by road transport due to flooding damage. Authorities continued to urge caution in flood-prone areas .
