The Bank of Spain has issued a statement on the effects of the DANA (Isolated Depression at High Levels) that affected Spain from September 12 to 14, 2022. The statement notes that the DANA caused significant damage to infrastructure and agriculture, and led to widespread flooding and power outages.
