A man aged about 70 died in Portugal after his car was swept away. And on Friday, police said a second body was found in Malaga.
A 'storm train' of consecutive winds and rains battering Spain and Portugal has already forced 11,000 people to flee their homes.

A man, believed to be about 70, died in Portugal's southern Alentejo region on Wednesday after his car was swept away by flood water, local authorities said.

And on Friday, police said a body was found not far from where a woman was swept away by a river in Malaga, as she tried to rescue her dog.
Storm Leonardo struck the Iberian Peninsula on Tuesday - with Spanish state weather agency AEMET warning that another storm, Marta, is on its way.
