Third-warmest summer since 1961: More tropical nights, more questions for Mallorca

Answer

What should I do in Mallorca before a sudden thunderstorm or heavy rain?

If storms are expected, secure balcony plants, close roof windows, and check that drains and gutters are clear. It is also sensible to avoid parking in low-lying areas and not to enter dry streambeds or riverbeds after heavy rain. In Mallorca, short but intense storms can lead to local flooding very quickly.
