89 missing, 225 fatalities, a tragedy greater than the numbers. When DANA (Depresión Aislada en Niveles Altos, in Portuguese, isolated depression at high levels) reached the region of Valencia, in southern Spain, 179.4 liters per square meter fell in just one hour – more than double the maximum ever recorded in Mainland Portugal. The warnings came too late. Valencians accuse the Government of failing to prevent and react. A month has passed and people are counting the dead, looking for the missing, trying to reconstruct what was lost. The reports of those who saw the water reach their necks are made amidst tears and choked voices.
