IRISH holidaymakers have been left in complete shock after floods took to the streets of a major Spanish hotspot.
Irish tourists holidaying in Salou, on the east coast of Spain, were left dashing for cover when the streets began filling with water.
Holidaymakers in France and Spain have seen thunderstorms and lower than average temperatures for this time of year over the last number of weeks.
Now, flash flooding has hit tourist hotspots.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Carlow Weather shared a video that had been sent from a follower of their's who was stuck in the extreme conditions.
They said: "Irish holiday makers in parts of France and Spain have seen thunderstorms and lower than normal temperatures. Video from a follower in Salou today showing flash flooding."
The video initially looks as if the person behind the camera is filming a local river but it's made obvious that it's in fact a flooded road.
Another follower replied to Alan O'Reilly's comments regarding Salou, sharing how the conditions have impacted their holiday.
They said: "This morning and yesterday but warm now definitely brought the weather with us over here."
Sharing two clips, they showed extreme grey skies from their hotel room, which quickly turned to flashes of lightning and sounds of thunder.
The second clip showed a similar sight to Alan's video as streets were flooded, forcing cars to be blocked in.
An urgent warning has been issued for any holidaymakers jetting off to Spain in the coming days for weeks due to the extreme weather.
On Tuesday, temperatures remained high hitting 25C but saw 99 per cent precipitation throughout much of the day.
Temperatures are set to rise on Tuesday to 29C but will drop back to 26C for the remainder of the week.
Europe has seen below average temperatures throughout June, as Carlow Weather said: "You won’t be surprised to hear that in Ireland June was not a record warm month, in fact it was below average here.
"July is starting off on the same theme with no sign of any heat here for the first 10 days. Animation shows upper air temperature forecast.
"Patchy drizzle in parts of the East but some brighter weather in West will slowly move across the country.
"Temperatures ranging from 13c in Northwest to 18c in South at lunchtime today as Eastern Europe see the heat."
