A Civil Protection recorded 19 occurrences between 12:00 and 2:00 p.m. in the Algarve, especially falls of trees and floods, raising to 76 the total accounted for since 00:00, according to a balance sheet made by the authorities.
The main occurrences are related to falls of trees (29), floods and accumulation of rainwater (18), structural falls (11) and mass movements (six), according to the balance made at 14:00 by the Regional Emergency and Civil Protection Command (CREPC) of the Algarve.
According to the data released, bad weather has also caused several constraints in road traffic, with roads cut or conditioned in the municipalities of Faro, Lagos, Portimão and Loulé, due to floods, falls of trees and mass movements.
Despite the impacts recorded, there was no “registration of minor or serious injuries, nor of displaced persons or displaced persons for prevention” until 14:00.
Civil Protection recommends that the population avoid non-essential displacements, do not cross flooded zones, fix objects likely to be projected by the wind and monitor the information disclosed by the authorities.
The region is under adverse weather conditions, with red warnings, with the means of protection and relief mobilized to respond to the occurrences and minimize the risks for people and goods.
Continental Portugal is now on alert until 11:59 p.m. due to the depression Charles, which caused about 200 occurrences of Madeira last night, mainly floods, falls from trees and collapses.
The government decided to close non-essential schools and public services in all districts, and more than three hundred flights were cancelled in Lisbon, Faro, Madeira and Porto.
According to the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA), which issued several red warnings due to rain and wind, depression changed its characteristics and on its way to the continent, this morning, there is a reduction in the intensity of wind and gusts. There's still a lot of rain ahead.
During the night, Greater Lisbon and the Setúbal Peninsula were the most affected areas, especially with floods, but the Faro district is the only one that maintains red warnings for both rain and wind.
