River Almonda bursts its banks and threatens roads in Ribatejo: "Reguengo de Alviela will become the island we're used to"

CNN Portugal reporter António Pereira Gonçalves describes rapid flooding in Riachos, in the municipality of Torres Novas, where the water level appears 'much more intense' than the previous day. It rained all night in the Serra de Aire and Candeeiros, leaving fields and minor roads submerged. A rise in the Tagus over the coming days could affect national roads and isolate Reguengo de Alviela.
