What's the weather like at the moment?

wednesday looking mega windy again, orange weather alert

sooo...tomorrow late afternoon/evening is looking like the peak when it comes to wind. maybe it won't be that bad, but the authorities seem to think we're in for more fallen trees etc. be careful out there tomorrow - maybe a day to actually stay home (note to myself: yes me too)
 
Looking at satellite and webcams, looks very poor weather at the moment but should be filling up those aquifers. Improving for the weekend though!!
 
waves up to the terraces of mambo & CDM today


but it was a glorious and sunny day at least - quite strange for us here on the balearics to have such a long stretch of bad weather. it started raining just before christmas and except a few days early january, we've had over a month of clouds, rain - and wind. but hey, the campo looks bloody gorgeous right now. been out hiking today and it was just a feast for the eyes.
 
sooooo - update from the weather front!

after literally weeks of having one 'borrasca' (storms / low pressure systems) after the next, it looks like we're getting towards the end of it this week and from mid feb onwards we might get into a stable situation for a while.

it's been years since we've had such a long bad weather spell, it had started raining just before christmas and apart from a few days it's been raining ever since and now it is finally stopping by the looks of it. unusual for us really, but as previously mentioned, fantastic for our acquifers and generally for nature.

now then, if you're still planning on that quick balearic winter break, get planning!
 
The crazy strong winds are back - kept me up for much of last night with all the banging noises. Apparently meant to get even windier tomorrow - yikes!

A friend on the island messaged me to say her friend’s plane over from London City this morning had to be rerouted to Alicante this afternoon due to the strong winds preventing it from landing safely in Ibiza.
