Answer

How does the weather affect Palma during storms?

In Palma, stormy weather can quickly lead to blocked drains, wet streets and scattered debris on pavements and roads. Places such as Passeig Mallorca are especially vulnerable when leaves and rubbish clog the drainage system. Even when the worst of the storm passes, cleanup and slower traffic can still affect daily life for several hours.
