Palma packed out because of cloudy weather

Palma police activated their "Operación Nube" (Operation Cloud) to try and deal with the traffic. The police can only do so much, though, when the weather is as it was yesterday.

It happens every year, and there have been attempts to publicise the fact and so try and dissuade visitors from going to Palma. But the city naturally holds a big attraction as an alternative to the beaches. And it wasn't only Palma that was inundated by visitors. In Manacor there were traffic tailbacks as well.
