We have another warning for heavy rain - a yellow alert for the Tramuntana and the south from midnight Sunday to noon on Monday. Rain could be accompanied by thunderstorms, there being a similar forecast for the whole island (minus the alert). Weather stations are suggesting that cloud and rain will be highly likely for much of the day; some sunny interludes later on.

(Incidentally, the rain on Sunday wasn't especially heavy despite the alerts.)

On Tuesday, rain is again forecast but there should be more sun. For Wednesday, the first of May and the official start to the tourism season, much less risk of rain and warmer temperatures. But the probability of rain is currently high on Thursday. Aemet notes that forecast temperatures this week are generally lower than normal for the time of year.
