Answer
What causes trees to fall during storms in Mallorca?
Trees can fall when dry soil, wind and sudden waterlogging weaken the root area. In Mallorca, long dry periods followed by intense rain can make urban trees more vulnerable, especially if they are not regularly checked. A fallen tree in Manacor was a reminder that storm damage is not only about water, but also about tree maintenance.
