Severe storms that hit the coast of northeastern Spain created huge waves officials blamed for three deaths. ThinkSpain reported the body of a 37-year-old Polish woman was found Friday, the day after she was hit by a wave as she was walking along the beach in Lloret de Mar. The other two victims were a Frenchman in his 20s who was fishing on the rocks on the coast of Roses (Girona) Thursday night and a man in his 40s, ThinkSpain said. The storms also produced heavy rains that caused the river Riguel in Zaragoza to overflow. Major flooding was reported in the Cinco Villas district, particularly the town of Sabada where 110 students were evacuated from the Reyes Catolicos high school.
