Mallorca weather alerts for Friday

The entire island of Mallorca and much of Barcelona have been issued with a series of weather alerts for Friday.

According to state weather agency Aemet, the popular holiday destinations have up to a 70% chance of being met with severe rainfall, storms and in some areas even hail.

It comes after huge parts of the mainland were placed under alerts on Thursday for similar conditions – including Valencia, Alicante and Benidorm.

In Mallorca, the areas under an orange warning Friday include the entire southern coast, running from Andratx to Palma, Llucmajor, Santanyi, Manacor and beyond.

Mallorca weather alerts for Friday

State weather agency Aemet predicts up to 40mm of rainfall could fall within an hour. The rest of the island is on a yellow alert with up to 20mm of rain expected.

In Barcelona, an orange alert is in place for the entire coastline, with heavy rain and storms and ‘potential hail’.

Tarragona is also under a yellow alert Friday for heavy rain.
