This could take a while to clear...I believe it's a major through route...trying to find exact location...if anyone knows..please post....We wake to 5°c this morning...this could be our final settled day as storms are a coming.
Our home Region of Murcia is going to get a hammering again, as are other regions..
We watch the forecast and dodge the best we can, however where to head for us becoming less obvious, at some time this week we will have to find a safe place and sit it out.
Even travel days after the current spell of stormy weather can be challenging...some roads in some areas will be impassable due to water run off or debris...even mud slides are commonplace...but this Municipality has very few mountainous areas...so this helps greatly...extra layers today for our proposed ride...
It's autumn in Spain, we're on the road again

- quite a few years now, and loving every minute..
bloody hell,
hope there’s nobody underneath that..
Same here, we had a lovely sunset yesterday evening, woken this morning at 5.15am by thunder, torrential rain then hailstones just to make sure we didn't sleep through it
Martin, this is the blockage in the A66 from León to Asturias that we discussed in this thread.
Nobody was hurt luckily.

The red sky didn't work so no delight this morning. We woke to a dull, cold morning with a little rain starting just before 8.00. We've moved to the motorhome area of Villarobledo because it's on a hardstanding area next to a park and the Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Calidad, which was open when we went to look around.
And the Park. It has two lovely kids play areas in a small park.
There's always a lovely corner to find wherever you travel.
It's not raining now, but it's very, very cold, damp cold. We're staying in the warm for the rest of the day.

They should be pretty good in spring if it doesn't dry out too much again by then.
We were here in spring this year. At home it was dry and brown. Here, over Easter, they had heavy rain. This was the effect a few weeks later. Our eyes almost hurt. It was wonderful to see.

We had very little rain yesterday and today began dry, but very gloomy. We weren't inspired to go out on the bikes, so instead we moved onto our present spot at the motorhome parking area of Lezuza, 50 km or so heading back towards Murcia.
Lezuza parking is a huge area with 8 marked spaces for motorhomes. It looked a bit wet when we arrived so we drove up the hill to the cemetery and parked in the pines there to go for a walk. We strolled for a pleasant 5 km. There's a castle on the hill, and an archaeological site, but we've visited them before so this time we just walked on past.
We've seen some sun today, and it's breezy, so at the end of our walk we headed back down to the official parking, and it was much drier by then, so we crossed the sandy gravel to our present spot. If it stays dry overnight we hope to get out on the bikes tomorrow.
Parking in the pines. The castle in the background.
We wondered ... it looks like an artificial badger sett ...
Ermita Virgen de la Cruz
We couldn't see inside, but my camera could.
