The heavy rain this Friday in Palma has caused a water fountain on the promenade at the height of the Avenidas to burst. The power of the water expelled by the leak in the pipe simulates a geyser. The problem, in addition to the waste of water it entails, is that the liquid that shoots out of the water fountain expels dirty water and the smell that emanates causes residents to have to move away from the area.

The 2026 Easter week arrives with a weather forecast marked by the typical spring variability in Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, and Formentera, with a combination of stable days and cloudy intervals that may bring some isolated showers.

Palma Airport is experiencing numerous delays due to fog, according to information provided by Aena. After 8 p.m., 16 departing and 16 arriving flights were delayed, and around 6 p.m., this number had risen to 31 arrivals and 9 departures. The airports of Menorca and Ibiza did not register any delays. So far, no flights have been canceled for these reasons. It should be noted that the Balearic Islands Emergency Service (112) activated a yellow alert for fog in Mallorca this Monday. The activation, as reported by the Emergency Service on its social media account, triggers the zero severity level (IG-0) of the Meteobal Plan.

The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) issued an orange alert for most of the Balearic coast due to waves that can occasionally reach 10 meters in height and declared a yellow alert in the interior of the archipelago due to southwest winds of 80 kilometers per hour.

Heavy rains brought by Storm Kristin on Wednesday have caused widespread flooding in several parts of the Balearic Islands and severely disrupted traffic. One of the most visible cases occurred at the entrance to the Son Noguera industrial park in Llucmajor, where the road was completely flooded, making driving extremely dangerous, as shown in images released by the Balearic Islands Meteorological Service. Given the circumstances, the 112 Emergency Service activated an orange alert (level 1 of the Meteobal Plan) across all the islands due to rain, wind, and coastal phenomena, and ordered the suspension of all scheduled outdoor sports competitions and training sessions. The storm also affected air traffic. According to Aena, two flights departing from Palma Airport were canceled, and two others were diverted to different airports in the archipelago. In addition, a flight from Alicante to Palma was canceled due to strong winds, while an Amsterdam-Ibiza flight had to be diverted to Palma and another, between Barcelona and Palma, had to land in Menorca. Delays were also reported on several inter-island connections and flights to other cities in Spain. The 112 emergency service reiterated its recommendation to avoid unnecessary travel, stay away from flood-prone areas and the coast, secure outdoor objects that could be blown away by the wind, and stay informed through official channels.

The 112 Emergency Coordination Center handled a total of 79 incidents between noon and 8 p.m. on Wednesday related to the storm. According to Emergency Services, the majority of incidents occurred in Ibiza (49), while 17 were in Mallorca and 12 in Formentera.

Among the incidents across the islands, 19 were fallen trees, 15 were landslides, 14 were trees falling onto roads, ten were urban elements dislodged, seven were liquid obstacles on roads, and six were flooded public roads.
