Sudden weather change in Mallorca: heat, storms — is the island prepared?

Answer

Why can Mallorca weather change so quickly from heat to thunderstorms?

Mallorca can move from very hot, settled weather to storms when a cold front meets moist air over the island. That combination can trigger heavy showers and thunderstorms within a short time. In practice, a calm morning can turn into a wet and windy afternoon quite suddenly.
