Answer

Does hot weather in Mallorca also increase wildfire risk?

Hot, dry weather in Mallorca can raise the risk of wildfires, especially in open countryside. When temperatures are very high and the ground is dry, small sparks or careless behaviour become more dangerous. That is why heat warnings matter even before storms or rain arrive.
