Mild Late Summer in Palma: Clouds, Warmth and a Fresh Breeze

On September 14th, Palma presents a late-summer mood: patches of clouds, warm temperatures around 29 °C and a moderate northeast wind — ideal for a city stroll or a break by the sea.

A late-summer Tuesday with a pleasant indecision

On September 14th, Palma seems unsure whether summer wants to send one last sign of life or whether autumn is already knocking gently. At 9 a.m. on Passeig del Born the cafés fill up, the air smells of fresh coffee and croissants, and people wear a light jacket more out of habit than necessity — Mallorcans simply like to be prepared, as noted in Palma on August 24: Clouds, Sea Breeze and a Hint of Summer.

Temperatures that invite you outdoors

The day starts mild at around 22.2 °C. By midday temperatures climb to just under 29.1 °C, in the afternoon they fall again to about 26.7 °C, and at night it stays pleasantly warm at approximately 24.7 °C. That is exactly the kind of warmth that invites you to stroll along the harbor: seagulls calling, the clack of sandals, and the occasional motorboat gliding gently through the water.

How the day feels

The felt temperatures complete the picture: about 22.7 °C in the morning, at midday the sun feels like 30.3 °C, in the afternoon the feeling eases to around 28.2 °C, and at night the perceived temperature hovers at about 25.2 °C. So anyone who spends a long time outdoors — at the Santa Catalina market (Late Summer in Palma: Light Clouds and Warm Air on 21 September 2025) or on a seaside promenade — should drink enough and bring a hat.

Air, wind and a touch of weather tech

Instruments report an air pressure of about 1020 hPa and humidity around 54%. A moderate northeast wind blows from roughly 60° at about 4.2 m/s, with gusts reaching up to 6 m/s. Cloud cover is at about 56%, and rain is practically excluded (0%). For beachgoers this means: be ready to move for sun and wind, for city strollers look for a shady spot.

Practical tips for the day

Light clothing, sunscreen and a water bottle are the bare minimum. A thin jacket for the evening is enough — the air remains mild. Those who want to spend the afternoon at the sea will find pleasant waves and enough breeze at Platja de Palma (Palma in late summer: pleasant warmth, a few clouds and the northeast breeze) or Portixol to enjoy the fresh sea air. The old town terraces are busy in the early evening: arrive a little earlier if you want a shaded spot.

A small, pleasant farewell to summer

All in all, this day is typical for the transition: friendly, a little moody, with enough sun to lift spirits and enough clouds to make the light interesting, and similar days were reported on 19 September in Mild Late-Summer Day in Palma: Clouds, Light Wind and No Rain in Sight. For locals and visitors alike this means: go out into the fresh air, enjoy the small things — and maybe have one last ice cream before the street lamps come on.
