The first of March is Balearics Day, with plenty of events going on especially in Palma. The forecast isn't that encouraging. Cloudy skies are expected for most of the day and there is a risk of rain for the whole island. If there is rain, Aemet says it will be light and occasional, but it might be noted that there is a yellow alert for rain in Ibiza and Formentera. It's just possible that heavier rain could push up into Mallorca. Fairly breezy as well on Saturday, a 'gregal' northeast wind due to be fresh, gusting up to 45-50 km/h in areas. In like a lion, as the saying goes, but the roar won't be that fierce.

There are also plenty of Carnival parades on Saturday. Palma's is on Sunday, and the forecast isn't a whole lot better. Weather stations are predicting the odd thunderstorm on Sunday, as is the case on Monday as well. There is a yellow alert for the Tramuntana and north/northeast coasts on Sunday - waves of three metres and gusts of 60 km/h.
