Cadiz is on the Southern tip of Spain on the Atlantic ocean. Andalucia is the southernmost province of Spain and would be decimated by an event from La Palma.
The article is in Spanish and other articles are available in Spanish. I have translated bits of the article from Spanish and feel free to post more, please!
The quakes started in La Palma on the 11th of Sept. this was announced 3 days prior, for exactly the threat that we are facing now!
we all know how "Drills" go. They are preparing!

The Junta de Andalucía has announced that it is preparing a large regional emergency drill for October in which the response in the event of a catastrophe in the event of earthquakes, tsunamis or floods will be tested.
The exercise, which is unprecedented in the region and which has been called 'Response 21', will take place on October 19, 20 and 21 and will recreate three emergency situations such as a major earthquake in eastern Andalusia ( Almería, Granada and Málaga), a tsunami in the Gulf of Cádiz (Cádiz and Huelva) and serious floods in the provinces of the Guadalquivir Valley (Jaén, Córdoba and Seville),
Never before has such a comprehensive and ambitious exercise been convened in the autonomous community that combines so many scenarios and possible risks."
"This represents an organization and planning challenge in terms of collective security unprecedented in the Andalusian community
The exercise will take place over three days in three different scenarios focused on specific risks, in order to have a global and multisectoral vision that tests the response and service mechanisms for citizens.
Thus, on Tuesday, October 19, a possible seismic movement that will affect eastern Andalusia will be recreated.
One day later, on Wednesday, October 20, the timeliness and effectiveness of the Contingency Plan will be measured against the risk of Tsunami
Finally, on Thursday, October 21, the Plan against Flood Risk in Andalusia will be launched
