Resum

Between 19th and 22nd January 2020, Storm Gloria severely affected the Mediterranean coastline, particularly Catalonia, the Region of Valencia, and the Balearic Islands. Formed by the merger of two storms, the way it stalled, and its duration turned it into a high-energy episode that caused heavy, intense rainfall, heavy snowstorms, river flooding and an exceptional maritime storm. It caused numerous economic losses all over, affecting both inland regions and the coast, the latter more severely. The consequences cannot be attributed to climate change but instead are the direct consequence of the anthropic occupation of high-risk areas, and therefore of poor or non-existent land-use planning.
