At least 158 people have died in Spain's worst flooding disaster, as rescue teams still struggle to find survivors.
More than 1,200 workers, aided by drones, were deployed on the rescue mission.
"At the moment the most important thing is to save as many lives as possible," Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez told victims in a visit to the affected communities.
According to the BBC, at least 155 deaths were recorded in Valencia, while two more were recorded in Castilla-La Mancha in the west of the province and another in Andalusia.
In the town of Paiporta, Valencia where a river burst its banks, at least 40 deaths have been recorded so far. Roads and highways are under water, while cars swept away by the storm were piled on top of each other.
Motorists have recounted the horror of being blocked by rising tides, which turned highways and roads into rivers.
