Sudden Severe Weather: Mallorca Between Heat Haze and Heavy Rain

Answer

Why does Mallorca sometimes go from hot sunshine to heavy rain so quickly?

Mallorca can shift fast from stable heat to thunderstorms because warm air over the island can suddenly become unstable. When that happens, showers may build quickly and bring intense rain in a short time. The change is often most noticeable after a very warm, calm afternoon.
