Storm Marta has impacted Andalucía since Saturday afternoon, significantly affecting the water levels in the Guadalquivir River, which swelled rapidly due to heavy rainfall and the release of water from reservoirs. Cities such as Córdoba and Sevilla capital have been particularly at risk, with local authorities monitoring the situation closely as rivers reached critical red alert levels.

While the initial concerns were primarily focused on Córdoba, the situation escalated with Sevilla and surrounding municipalities like El Palmar de Troya and Écija experiencing increased flooding risks. By late afternoon on Saturday, officials from Emergencias clarified that the flooding seen in some low-lying areas of Sevilla was not due to the river overflowing its banks but rather from other sources, attempting to mitigate public worry.

In a separate incident related to the storm, a wall collapse in Canena (Jaén) resulted in two people being trapped, which underscores the storm's broader impact on infrastructure in the region. The Junta de Andalucía has urged residents to refrain from traveling unless necessary as a precautionary measure amidst ongoing weather concerns and rising flood risks.
