Forecasts, as we know, aren't always accurate, which was the case on Saturday. The met agency had only expected light rain, but it had given a fairly high probability of rain. By half five in the afternoon there had been precisely none (recorded by the main weather stations anyway).
We'll see what Sunday brings, the forecast being for the occasional thunderstorm and a high risk of rain for most of the island. Occasional sunny breaks, as there were on Saturday, and continuing to be quite breezy in areas. The yellow alert for the coasts is still in place. For the Tramuntana this is from midnight Saturday to 8pm, for the north-northeast from 6am to 8pm; waves of three metres, gusts to 60 km/h.
