It is rather a mixed bag for the weather this weekend in Mallorca. For those reading this away from our shores the day dawned with cloud which is expected to continue throughout the day. The good news for Saturday is that rain isn't being forecast but there are winds of up to 22km/h.
There is better news for tomorrow, Sunday, with Santa Ponsa hosting the big Saint Patrick's parade and the all-day party. The Palma Met Office is forecasting sunshine with a maximum temperature of 16 degrees.
The unsettled weather will continue into next week with more cloud but some sunshine and relatively high temperatures.
