It was fairly cloudy in parts of Mallorca on Friday morning and there were a few drops of muddy rain. Just possible that there will be a repeat of this on Saturday, as the radar shows some cloud capable of some light rain. Otherwise sunny.
The alert for high temperatures on Saturday remains as it was - yellow for the south and interior from 1pm to 7pm; maximums around 37C. The alert for Sunday (also yellow) is currently for the interior only.
Coming to the big heat that has been threatened for a few days, the forecast for Tuesday - as can be seen below - is for some very high temperatures, especially in the interior. Binissalem is the highest of these, 43C, but there is still the possibility of 44C; the Inca weather station continues to suggest this.
If the forecasts are accurate, there will be a drop in temperature on Wednesday. For the whole island, highs of 31C to 33C are forecast. Pretty hot, but not ridiculous.
