Answer
How common are mudslides and landslides in Mallorca after storms?
Landslides can happen when intense rain hits steep or unstable ground, especially in areas with poor drainage. In Mallorca, they tend to appear after short but strong storms that saturate the soil quickly. Roads near slopes may be temporarily closed while crews clear mud, stones and debris.
