Some locals have taken to social media to express their frustration at the delay in issuing a red alert.

‘AEMET can you explain how it helps putting out a red alert when 120 litres of water have already fallen in half an hour? Campillos is like this right now. Thank you.’

#Meteorología podéis explicar de qué sirve poner alerta roja una vez han caído 120 litros en media hora? Campillos esta ahora mismo así. Gracias. pic.twitter.com/RaPdgEQnta
