Morning Joelise, yes i am sorry but it's not looking good. Just been on AccuWeather it says rain and wind until Wednesday but Thursday and Friday will be sunny.:(

Hope it picks up for you Joelise, and you manage to get a few sunny days. Of all the weather forecasting sites recommended on here I have found Accuweather to be the most reliable and the 15 day forecast now runs up to to my arrival date so I will checking daily.

Hope you have lovely break, whatever the weather.

Sparky, thanks for your reply. I'm sorry the weather isn't so good but pleased that at least it isn't cold. I believe this is the first rain since April? Sounds as if it has been stored up. I hope that all those on holiday have a wonderful time in a wonderful place regardless of the weather.
Oh just as an aside - I don't know if this is true but someone once said to me that the weather in the Palma area is VERY different to Pollensa. I realise that there would be some difference but the island isn't that large that it should differ greatly? If that was the case then the new motorway would be heaving with tourists heading for Santa Ponsa!
Thanks again for the update and I hope you all see sun again soon.

Unfortunately we too have noticed that the weather often seems to get decidedly worse as you head to the North of the island - something to do with the mountains perhaps? The cloud seems to sit over them without budging. On several occasions we have left a cold and wet PP to drive to Palma only to find brilliant sunshine... I think the weather forecasts show the weather in Palma so they aren't always reliable.

Hi, but there have been many times when i have been here and it is a beautiful day, people have gone to the south of the island and come back reporting heavy rain and thunderstorms.
Being a Plymothian this is not unusual to me, the same thing used to happen in Devon and Cornwall, the south coast could be glorious and the north coast wet and vice versa.:D

Well the case is repacked - but as we are sharing just the one due to pesky no frill airline charges - my wellies wouldn't fit;) I have got 2 kagoules in there though, and on the top for getting the hire car in the morning :) Just watched the weather for here in Yorkshire and it is sunny all week... We were over for a quick 4 day break in early May and we had half a day of sun and the rest was cloudy and drizzley. The only thing for it is to lunch out, dinner out and copious amounts of alcohol inbetween, with some shopping for variety:rolleyes:When we holidayed with the boys when they were younger we would often leave CSV in the rain and head down to Marineland past Palma and it would be clear skies, but it has also happened the other way as well. PP and CSV are just so relaxing whatever the weather.

Have a great time what ever the weather joelise :)

Hi Joelise, I'm sorry the weather seems to be letting you down yet again but nice to see you have a positive attitude. The island is such a lovely place to be and as you said there are lots of things you can do whatever the weather,
Have a wonderful time and I hope the sun shines for you during your holiday.

Re. the weather - The forecast was dreadful for the week just past and yes, it did rain but not constantly as in the UK and mostly at night, we have been here a week and have already developed a nice tan. Don't be put off there is still more sun than rain.

:DWhaley you are so right, the rain has been mostly during the night.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Whaley !
Not in ALL of the UK ! I have just spent most of the last week, Bikini clad topping up my PP tan....and it has bin roastin !...yes... here in the West of Scotland :D

(tho I think it is winding itself up tonight to make up for it ! lol)

Hope ur weather improves and have a nice holiday

The Weather
 

When we left PP last Tues the rain was horizontal and making it's way into the apt.:eek: Still as you say most of the other days it rained mainly overnight, which mean't that although the sun may have been missing, during the day it was still nice and warm. Plenty to do, lovely walks, daytime dining, chilling etc.:)

It is mostly cloudy today but the sun is making brief appearances 25c and quite windy.;)

We have had thunder, strong winds anf 132mm of rain today! It is wet n warm though!

OMG that is over 5 inches of rain!! - In one day! - Poor holidaymakers, what a shame.
