Torrential rain is flooding Ibiza, where tourists and residents have been urged not to travel.
Videos emerging from the Spanish island dramatic deluges, with streets becoming torrents and water pouring through the roof of Ibiza Airport.
Local media reported there had been a ‘cascade of rain’ inside the airport building, where the security check area had been flooded after ‘constant and very heavy water leaks, completely flooding the area’.
The whole island is under a red warning, the maximum alert level, for heavy rainfall until 4pm local time.
State meteorological agency AEMET said there had been over 180mm of rain falling in twelve hours, saying: ‘Caution! Extraordinary danger. There may be flooding and sudden rises in waterways.’
🔴AVISO ROJO | Lluvias torrenciales en Ibiza y Formentera.➡️ Más de 180 mm en doce horas. ¡Precaución! Peligro extraordinario. Puede haber inundaciones y crecidas repentinas de cauces. ➡️ El aviso está vigente hasta las 16:00 h. pic.twitter.com/6T0m4C9lyK

The website for Ibiza Airport warns: ‘ADVERSE WEATHER: AEMET red warning for adverse weather. If you are planning to fly to/from Ibiza Airport, please check with your airline about the status of your flight.’
Flights scheduled to land in Ibiza had to be diverted this morning, although the airport is currently still operating.
Across the island, some roads have been closed including major highways the E10 and E20, and parents were told not to collect their children from school until the water levels eased.
People across the island were sent a warning alert to their mobile phones warning them of the situation.
The extreme weather is being caused by the remnants of what was Hurricane Gabrielle. It weakened as it swept across the Atlantic, but remains a powerful low press system bringing disruption with potentially danger to life.
There is a possibility the UK could also be hit with heavy rain towards the end of this week, as tropical cyclones sweep towards us.
Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Chris Bulmer said yellow warnings for rain cover the next three days in western Scotland, but there was the potential for wider disruption: ‘The situation becomes more complex later in the week as tropical cyclones Humberto and Imelda, currently over the southwest Atlantic, influence our weather, increasing the risk of a deep low developing near the UK.
‘If this materialises, we could see some very strong winds as well as further heavy rainfall Friday into Saturday, but at this time the development and track of this system remains uncertain. We’re monitoring this closely.’

Crowds at Creamfields were stunned when the man of the summer turned up on stage.
Internet phenomenon Ibiza Final Boss, aka Jack Kay, was brought out by DJ Patrick Topping during his set at the Cheshire dance festival yesterday.
Jack’s iconic ‘Battle of Hastings’ bowl cut hair do is now legendary – and it was in fine fettle as he swapped partying in £9million villas for the new Halo stage.
The 26-year-old Geordie became instantly famous earlier this month when a video of him dancing in the Spanish party capital went viral.
His perfectly sculpted beard, large gold chain, chunky sunglasses and pearly white veneers – not forgetting his medieval-style barnet – saw him bestowed with the nickname that’s become synonymous with Summer ’25.

He soon cashed into his rise to fame by launching a cryptocurrency, dropping a track on Spotify, and landing a five-figure deal with a clothing firm.
Video from yesterday’s Creamfields set captured thousands of revellers swarming the stage, pointing their phones towards the stage to get a glimpse of Ibiza royalty.
Jack swapped his vest for a blue zip-up long-sleeved top, suggesting he’s taking a bit of time acclimatising to the UK’s cooler temperatures.
Brand and culture expert Nick Ede suggested Kay could make in excess of £250,000 after ‘capturing the zeigiest’ through deals and club tours while he also became the face of easyJet’s Ibiza holidays.
And who can forget the memes? Jack was turned into Lego and Simpsons-style characters, a Greggs gingerbread man, and a Henry vacuum cleaner.

The man, the myth, the legend…
Jack Kay has officially transcended mere mortal status to become ‘Ibiza’s Final Boss’ this summer.
It is unlikely you have not seen the video on TikTok, showing the 26-year-old dancing in the Spanish party capital with the unshakeable confidence of a man entirely unbothered of rhythm.
Donning a chunky gold necklace, rocking sunglasses a few shades darker than Berghain and flashing pearly white veneers – and a precise bowl-like haircut – he did not come to steal the show, he was the show.
He is the Internet’s latest sensation, joining the ranks of meme royalty Salt Bae, Hide the Pain Harold, and Bad Luck Brian.
Last night, Jack finally leaned into his new found fame and confirmed his identity on Instagram.
He stressed that he was just a ‘normal person from Newcastle,’ telling his followers: ‘Appreciate all the love and messages of everyone.
‘I will get back to everyone quick [as] I can. It is just a lot for me to take in at the moment. I am just a normal person from Newcastle.
‘It is crazy, stay locked in, got some big news coming.’
He went on to share a picture with Tony Truman, the co-owner of Ocean Beach Ibiza nightclub.
Jack has since racked up more than 16,000 followers and has also found himself an agent.
Other details have since come to light about his life back in the UK after a woman has now claimed she is his girlfriend.
Alisha Cook, 23, shared a series of videos of the ‘Ibiza final boss’ captioned ‘POV ya boyfriends now known as Ibiza final boss’.
She is seen cosying up to Jack, including clips of him kissing her cheek and the two of them partying together.
