So much for the rain that the met agency had forecast on Thursday, but it was certainly windy, yellow alerts having been issued for high wind across much of the island and for the south and east coasts. These alerts ended at 5pm, but wind is expected to still be a factor for part of Friday.

The Aemet weather clock (which covers six-hour periods) suggests some rain for much of the island until the afternoon as well as possible thunderstorms in the southwest and the Tramuntana. There should nevertheless be a good amount of sun, but temperatures are due to fall.

The normal temperature for the time of year is around 23C, so tomorrow's values look as if they will be more or less in line with this.
