Storm 'Emilia' on the way: How well prepared is Mallorca?

Answer

Does rain in Palma affect everyday life and traffic?

Yes, even moderate rain can slow daily life in Palma, especially in older streets and busy central areas. Market stalls are often covered, foot traffic changes, and delivery routes or short car trips can become more difficult if water collects on the roads. The city usually keeps moving, but rain makes everything a little slower and less predictable.
