Sóller today: light rain in the morning, sun later – a typically Mallorcan day

A brief shower, then light again

Anyone who strolled through Sóller's narrow streets in the morning heard the typical patter on the olive leaves and smelled the damp earth. The rain was no drama, rather a short sweep — like someone opening the shutters and saying: now it will be bright again. Around noon the sky cleared, sunbeams slipped through the clouds and on the Passeig you could hear the clatter of plates again in the cafés, as noted in Sóller today: Rain, Tramuntana breeze and cozy moments.

The numbers at a glance

The readings stay unexcited: in the morning about 19 °C, a daytime maximum around 25.7 °C, slightly falling in the afternoon to around 22.7 °C and at night at about 20.2 °C. In short: T-shirt in the afternoon, light jacket in the evening breeze, a pattern also reported in Sóller on October 6, 2025: Drizzle in the Morning, Mild Hours in the Afternoon.

How it feels

The perceived temperatures match the official figures: about 19.2 °C in the morning, roughly 25.6 °C during the day and around 20.5 °C in the evening. Those walking their dogs along the Passeig noticed the difference mainly from a light southeast wind — it cools, but it doesn't bite.

Pressure, humidity and wind — the facts

Technically: the air pressure is around 1018 hPa, humidity at roughly 50 %. A mild breeze comes from the southeast at about 2.1 m/s, gusts can reach up to 3.3 m/s. Cloud cover is about half the sky and the chance of rain remains elevated — a small hint to all those who forget umbrellas.

What this means for the day

For a coffee on the plaza or a walk at Port de Sóller the weather is ideal. The short showers bring freshness, and the sun makes the café cups on the tables dry quickly. The fishermen on the quay cast checking glances at the sky this morning, but after the first sunshine some rowed out again — a good sign that sea and weather come to terms quickly.

Hikers in the Serra de Tramuntana UNESCO World Heritage should still pack a lightweight rain jacket: on the heights, cloud wisps can dampen the paths while down in the towns the sun is already warming the stone. Those who set out early enjoy cooler shade; those who start in the afternoon can choose between warm clearings and shady pines.

Practical tips

Stay flexible: a light layer in the morning, sunscreen for the afternoon and a small rain cover are more than enough. For the evening a thin jacket is recommended — you can then quietly enjoy a glass of wine on the terrace while the Sóller tram whistles in the distance and the seagulls circle above the harbor.

Simple local advice: shoes that grip even on wet cobblestones, and a bag with room for sunglasses and a pocket umbrella. Sóller handles today's change between rain and sun with that unflustered calm that people here love so much, as described in Sóller on October 14: Light drizzle, mild air and shiny pavements.
