UK consequences
DANA could impact food supply

Privacy Policy

Following the severe storm that hit Spain, there could be knock-on consequences on the UK's food supply.

A DANA storm hit Spain this past week, leading to catastrophic flooding and several fatalities as over one month's worth of rain fell in just a few hours across parts of southern and eastern regions.

Spain produces 32% of the UK's fresh vegetable supply, with much of this grown in Almeria.

Almeria has 40,000 hectares of greenhouses, much of which was just destroyed by the storm.

This comes just over a year after a devastating hail storm near Valencia wiped out 37,000 acres of crops, blanketing vines and shrubs in an icy coating.

Super Typhoon Bavi threatens Taiwan. Up to 1,000 mm of rain. . Weather Videos. Wednesday 8 July 2026
The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
