Mallorca stays dry as rain sweeps mainland Spain

Mallorca, in Spain’s Balearic Islands, looks set to stay dry on Saturday as rain reaches almost all of mainland Spain. Spain’s State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) forecasts clear or mostly clear skies across the islands. Yellow rain warnings are in place for the provinces of Ávila, Salamanca and Cáceres.

Rain is less likely around the Ebro and across much of the Mediterranean region. It is not expected to reach the far southeast of mainland Spain or the Balearics. Clouds should break up in many mainland areas during the afternoon.

The heaviest rain is forecast in the western part of Spain’s Central System mountain range, where it could last longer. Locally heavy showers with thunderstorms are possible on the southern Catalan coast and in western Andalusia. On Mallorca and the other Balearic Islands, moderate winds are expected from the west and southwest.
