[### Cause of Valencia floods better understood with personal weather stations
On 29 October 2024, the Valencia region was flooded after extremely heavy downpours. Nathalie Rombeek, a PhD candidate in flood forecasting at TU Delft, reconstructed the cause of these devastating floods. Using data from 225 personal weather stations, installed by residents at home, she was able to trace the dynamics of the dramatic event in detail. By making smart use of these weather stations, flood warnings can in the future be issued with greater accuracy. The results have been published in the scientific journal Hydrology and Earth System Sciences.](https://www.tudelft.nl/en/2025/citg/cause-of-valencia-floods-better-understood-with-personal-weather-stations)
