Well, it didn't go entirely to forecast on Friday - not up to the time of this report anyway. There was some rain, a bit of thunder and lightning, but little on the scale of a yellow alert. The northeast was an exception; there was a fair old hailstorm around Cala Ratjada for instance.
Still more time, though, as the yellow alert for rain (up to 20 litres per square metre in an hour), thunderstorms and possible hail is active for the whole of Mallorca until 8am on Saturday.
With the exception of the east of the island, there is another yellow alert for rain and thunderstorms for Sunday - midnight Saturday to noon Sunday (Tramuntana, the north and northeast) and noon to 6pm (the south and the interior).
Around the weather stations for Saturday, the prospect is for a mostly overcast day with a high probability of rain.

The recent Article concerning the shortage of water this Summer for Tourists. Will welcome this rain for the whole Island. Although those who are here now will be upset it is spoiling their holiday.
