Torrential rain has caused flash floods in southern Spain, killing an elderly woman and sending cars floating down the streets of one town.
National Spanish Television on Thursday showed a river of water gushing through the streets of Canete de las Torres town in the Andalusia region and cars piled on top of one another.
About 150 houses were evacuated, and TV footage showed people sweeping water out of their damaged homes.
The body of an 85-year-old woman was found in a stream in the town hours after the heavy rains began Wednesday.
The regional government says the south-central province of Cordoba was the worst hit.
