Regina approaches: Wind, persistent rain and Saharan dust — Is Mallorca prepared?

Answer

Which parts of Palma are most vulnerable to flooding during rain?

In Palma, streets with poor drainage or low-lying sections can fill with water very quickly when heavy rain arrives. Areas such as the old town, Avinguda Jaume III and the Paseo Marítimo can be affected if gutters are blocked by leaves and dust. Flooding can develop fast, so local conditions matter more than the overall forecast.
