Bitter cold snap in Majorca easing today
The ‘Beast from the East’ took a little bite out the Balearics yesterday, but it was just a nibble compared to other parts of Europe, such as the UK, and areas of mainland Spain.
Yesterday’s minimum temperatures were bitter and made a lot worse by the harsh winds and chill factor. There was some snow down to around 400 metres. Nowhere registered ten degrees, and at the Alfabia weather station in Bunyola in the Tramuntana the temperature was as low as -3.8C. In Palma, the wind chill gave the feel of minus one degree.

March 1, what a lovely day and it will only get better! And the winter tourists who came here are probably happy that they avoided the Siberian ice cold winds and all the snow that hit most EU countries and even Rome.
Feel sorry for the tourists who have discovered how much "better in winter" it can be at this time of year.
Forgive him he is only a daily bu..s,,t reporter !
Tomorrow is Thursday 1st March (Balearics Day).
