Given the predictions of weather stations over the past few days, no great surprise that Aemet has issued alerts for heavy rain and thunderstorms. These could be updated, but as of Tuesday evening, there is a yellow alert for rain on Wednesday in the north/northeast and interior from noon till 6pm (up to 20 litres per square metre in an hour) and then there are yellow alerts for rain and storms for the whole of Mallorca on Thursday; these will be from midnight Wednesday for most of Thursday.
There should be some sunny spells on Wednesday and on Thursday. Aemet hasn't issued any alerts for Friday yet, but the weather stations are indicating further heavy cloud and rain. Saturday is looking a bit better than it had been, but still with some risk of rain, while temperatures on Sunday are currently forecast to increase to a maximum of 34C.
As for Tuesday, rainfall was only very light. The image with this report comes with an explanation that rain and thunderstorms were moving away from Mallorca to the northeast. But there will be more to come; hence the weather alerts.
