Several popular holiday destinations in Spain have been battered with heavy rainfall in recent days leading to flash flooding.
Both the capital Madrid and the region of Mercia have been dramatically affected by the deluge of rain while Valencia where it had not rained significantly in months was also badly impacted.
The severe weather has led to some streets becoming rivers in Murcia whilst buildings have been flooded and some even submerged, the Daily Record reports.

A number of road closures in the southern parts of the country have also made life difficult for tourists trying to travel by car or coach.
Emergency services were called into action in order to try to relieve streets that had been inundated with water following a recent drought period.
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.
Another area of concern is that of Molina del Segura, where rescue forces have been drafted in as the situation had been life threatening.
Madrid was affected overnight between May 25 and 26 after having received no rainfall for months.
More rain fell in just hours than in months previous, resulting in a number of distress calls being made across the capital.
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 dramatic weather means that Scottish people travelling to the impacted areas may see travel disruption as the unsettled conditions continue.
The wet weather is set to continue throughout this week in areas including Madrid and Valencia, according to the Met Office. However, conditions are set to be less severe.
