As predicted for most of the week, temperatures are expected to drop a few degrees on Friday; down to 21C in some areas.

Overcast in the morning and with a high probability of some rain; brightening up later on. There are yellow alerts for all the coasts - the south until noon and the rest of the island until midnight. Waves of two to three metres and gusts up to 60km/h in the Tramuntana and the north in particular.

These alerts will continue into Saturday, which is forecast to be a better day. The weekend looks as if it will be generally fine with temperatures climbing back to the high 20s. The outlook for next week at present indicates another fall in temperatures on Tuesday and a further prospect of some rain.
