Be careful to Leslie this weekend of October 13th and 14th

Beyond the forecast precipitation still on Spain and the coasts of Europe for the weekend, what worries meteorologists is Leslie Hurricane who returns to Europe or Africa following the scenarios.

In a scenario, Leslie gets stronger before arriving by the south of Spain and go up violently the Mediterranean ... there we should expect the worst, but we are not there yet fortunately.
