Answer

Why is Puig Major often mentioned during severe weather in Mallorca?

Puig Major is Mallorca’s highest point, so it often records the strongest wind speeds on the island. Weather stations there can show how intense a storm really is, even when conditions in lower areas feel different. That makes Puig Major an important reference point during severe weather episodes.
