Answer

How much extra time should I allow at Palma Airport in bad weather?

In stormy conditions, it is sensible to arrive much earlier than usual because check-in, security and gate changes can all take longer. Even if your flight is still scheduled, the airport can become crowded fast and boarding times may change with little notice.
