While no more rain is expected today, a yellow warning for strong West Northwest winds, later shifting to Northwest, is in effect until 10pm tonight.

Images from Arnold’s Citizen Watch show the Kalkara Coast flooded as well water pouring down onto Qormi Road in Luqa.
Another photo taken near Valletta Waterfront in Floriana, posted on the group Are You Being Served Malta? shows the pavement completely flooded as the water made it difficult to distinguish between the road and pavement.
