ShareIn Cortes de la Frontera (3,408 inhabitants) they are used to the heavy rain, but not so much to the earth movements due to the saturation of the underground aquifers and the resulting buzzing sounds.
In the last few hours, these tremors have been regular, causing concern among the residents of this town in the Guadiaro valley.
"This morning there have been several tremors that we have felt and heard; in one of them I felt the bed move and heard a 'boom'," said Manuel, one of the few Cortes locals who this newspaper has seen in the deserted streets of the village, where from last night until midday the drinking water has been cut off due to a breakdown.
