IBIZA has been swamped by severe flooding as a “red alert” storm continues to dump rain on the holiday island.

Streets around the island have been transformed into muddy rivers, with locals forced to wade through calf-deep water.

Ibiza is the only part of Spain which remains under an “extreme danger” red alert, after many eastern areas were battered on Monday and overnight.

The warning of extreme rainfall is due to remain in place until 4pm today, meaning worse flooding could be on the way.

Footage posted online shows raging torrents of floodwater smashing down residential streets and buffeting cars.

Roads resemble fast-moving rivers as the waterlogged island struggles beneath the sheer quantity of water.

One clip even shows it raining inside Ibiza Airport’s security hall – with water leaking out of the ceiling.
