A fine sunny day is forecast for Wednesday with highs expected to be slightly above an average of 23C for the time of year. The outlook for the rest of the week and into the start of next week isn't too bad, though the predictions from weather stations do vary. There could be some rain in the north on Thursday, for instance, and elsewhere on Friday and Saturday, while the wind is forecast to pick up in areas on Friday. A decent amount of sun is otherwise on the cards at present.
As to the impact of the passing 'dana' depression, there was a fair amount of rain on Tuesday. Aemet bumped up the yellow alert in the south to amber for a time, but the heaviest rainfall was in Banyalbufar in the Tramuntana region. And that wasn't much below Monday (54 litres per square metre was the heaviest), when there was a red alert for a while. Temperatures were well down.
