The transition into autumn is making its presence known across Ibiza and Formentera with a striking shift in weather. On Wednesday, the islands faced orange and yellow alerts due to rain storms and coastal phenomena respectively. Although the rain played a minor role, gusts of wind exceeding 60 km/h were enough to nudge temperatures down significantly. Overnight lows flirted with the 20ºC mark, dropping to 22ºC at Ibiza Airport, while Sant Joan recorded similar figures.
In Mallorca, conditions were far more dramatic, with heavy rainfall leading to tragic consequences. A woman lost her life after being swept away by floodwaters in Felanitx as temperatures plunged to 14ºC in some areas. Fierce winds reached up to 158 km/h around Banyalbufar, underlining the severity of the storm.
Thursday has persisted with yellow alerts for potential rain and coastal disruptions, evolving into a fresher morning feel than recent days. Highs are not likely to hit 30ºC, reflecting a noticeable dip in temperatures in the Pitiusas. This weather shift might have you switching from beach vibes to breezier island explorations, adding a different flavour to your Ibiza adventures.
