The 'cold drop' forecast for Saturday had little impact on most of Mallorca, but it did affect flights at Palma Son Sant Joan Airport. There were delays to around 100 flights and six cancellations.
The cancellations were to domestic flights, but there were delays to many European flights because of adverse weather.
The emergency services in the Balearics weren't overstretched by Saturday's weather. By 2pm, there were eight incidents, three of these in Mallorca. Heavy rain, where it did fall, was mainly confined to the southern Tramuntana area.
Ibiza and Formentera were most affected by the rain, though it wasn't especially heavy on these islands either. It has been raining again on Sunday in Ibiza and Formentera, the Aemet met agency having posted that showers and storms are losing force as they move towards Mallorca.
Around 9am on Sunday, Aemet issued a yellow alert for storms in the south of Mallorca from 9am to noon.

So MDB? Your headline is once again very misleading. Are you saying that because the weather got slightly colder flights were cancelled?? Haven't we had enough climate fear porn for one summer. It's getting ridiculous now not even the sheep are believing it.
