This is not what it is. The infrastructure isn't THAT bad.
replyGovernment officials are terrified of taking the blame for another Valencia style flooding catastrophe so any hint of rain blasts the mobile phone emergency system. Once the alert has been sent the officials can feel safe in the knowledge that they've done something.
And ES-Alert is all or nothing. All calm or end-of-the-world. There is no option to send moderate level warnings, the ones that can be disabled. It always uses level 1, even if EU-Alert also defines 2-4. Population can not act as filter like a farmer chatting with non-farmers and saying "tomorrow I have to move the cows because the warning".
replyIn my area it is that bad, when the torrential rains come yearly, streets become rivers, with trash cans floating. Is it not like that in your place?
replyHow can you even claim infrastructure is not bad in our country?
