Forecast high: 33C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): Southwest 3 to 4; Northeast 3 at intervals during the middle of the day.
A fine morning once more. The alert for high temperatures has been downgraded to yellow, so there is unlikely to be a repeat of yesterday's 40, but still hot and staying hot and sunny through the week.

Morning high (7.30am): 26C
Forecast high: 33C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): Southeast 4 veering South and Southwest during the afternoon.
A very stuffy night and a warm morning. The level two orange alert for temperatures remains in place. Though the met office suggested that temperatures would fall a bit from tomorrow, the forecast is showing no obvious sign. Sun all the way and hot right through the coming week.
Evening update (19.15): The 100 mark well and truly breached. Sa Pobla recorded a high of 40.3C at 5pm, which is 104.5F. Coastal highs not as extreme - Puerto Pollensa has registered 35.4C.

Morning high (7.45am): 23C
Forecast high: 34C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): Southeast 4.
May be some cloud about today but the morning is as mornings have been for several days - very calm, bright and warm. With southerlies dominating, 37.8 (100) may be achieved somewhere in the northern area today or over the weekend.
Evening update (19.15): A high of 37.6C inland in Pollensa, so the 100F mark not breached after all. Not quite as hot on the coast, with a high of 34C.

No Frills Excursions
Morning high (7.30am): 23C
Forecast high: 33C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): South 3 increasing 4 Southeast around midday.
More of the same. Clear skies and already warm, highs likely to get to the mid-30s later, the alert for high temperatures remaining in place for the afternoon. The met office says these particularly high temperatures will stay until Sunday when there is likely to be a slight fall.
Evening update (19.45): Didn't quite reach the 100 Fahrenheit mark. 37.5C in Sa Pobla was the local high inland, 36.4C the coastal high at what is typically always the hottest spot, namely Colonia Sant Pere. Probably will top the 100 mark tomorrow with the southerlies still bringing in Saharan air.

Morning high (7.45am): 24.5C
Forecast high: 32C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): South 2 backing East 4 by midday.
Dark, thundery-looking cloud but should give way to sunnier skies. Another hot day, southerlies dominating and so likely to make things feel close.
Evening update (19.45): Disappointing day. Cloud dominating and a sprinkling of rain at one point. A high of 29.2C.

Brighter morning and no sign of a let-up in the high temperatures; over 30 right into next week. Chance of a shower tomorrow morning but otherwise the weekend will be sunny with easterlies dominating, which typically can mean quite muggy weather.
Evening update (19.30): Inland high of 33C and coastal high, 31.4C.

Morning high (8.45am): 25C
Forecast high: 31C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): Southeast 2 to 3 backing Northeast 3 to 4.
Morning cloud, heavier than of recent, should give way to another sunny day. Feeling close as a result of the cloud. The hotter weather due to continue through the weekend.
Evening update (19.45): 32.3C the inland high and 30.4C the coastal high. There was a bit of localised rain this morning but not much and there were also some rumbles of thunder. Quite muggy.

Some light cloud around but it's going to be another sunny and hot day. Breezes are due to shift to southerly later and also tomorrow, which could make things hotter.
Evening update (19.15): 32.6C the inland high on a day when there has been some lightish cloud making things a bit hazy. 31.4C the coastal maximum.

Forecast high: 31C
Sea conditions (northern Mallorca; Alcúdia and Pollensa bays): Northeast 2 to 3 and 4 at intervals during the middle of the day easing to Variable 2 by the evening.
Another hot and sunny one today, the heatwave is not proving, yet, to be as hot as had been forecast, though anything over 30 is hot enough. Northerlies helping to keep things in check, as there isn't African air coming in that would make it especially hot.
Evening update (19.15): A high of 32.2C inland and just under the 30 mark on the coasts.

MALLORCA TODAY - Weather Alcúdia and Pollensa 24 August 2012
Early temperatures ranging from 20 to 25 on what will be another scorching day, a yellow alert, so a downgrade of yesterday's orange. The weekend will remain hot, though there is due to be a slight fall in the temperature. Into next week, sunny and still hot.
Afternoon update: The high today has been in Pollensa (36.8) with coastal temperatures generally three degrees or more lower except in what are the typically hotter coastal areas on Alcúdia bay in the Can Picafort/Colonia area, where the highs have been up to 36. Tomorrow may now have more cloud than previously forecast, and while the temperatures will fall this weekend, they are set to rise once more next week.

Not as oppressive overnight and quite a fresh feel at 07.30, temperatures varying across the area between 20 and 25. The orange alert for today means some very high values, so 40 is quite possible in some parts. The outlook still suggests very hot weather, though there is meant to be a drop in temperatures on Sunday and just a slight chance of a shower.
Afternoon update: Well, not necessarily as hot as had been anticipated. Sa Pobla has knocked in a 39.5 high, but the coastal areas have varied between 30 and 35.

It felt particularly last night though the humidity was relatively low; midnight temperatures were still nudging 30. Early morning, 07.30, and the area maximum is nearly 26 on what may well be a hotter day than yesterday when Sa Pobla went over the 100F mark and Colonia Sant Pere registered 39.1 (around 102F). It is forecast to cool down somewhat by Sunday though the five-day forecast is still predicting temperatures over 30 come Monday.
Afternoon update: Highs today up towards 39C. There is now an orange alert for tomorrow which could mean going over the 40 mark and so increased risk to health.

A rather fresher feel to the morning, sunny with highs of 25 and 26 at 08.30. The yellow alert remains in place for high temperatures today but not for tomorrow, though temperatures will still be into the 30s. There is due to be a fall in temperatures at the weekend by up to four degrees on Sunday.
Afternoon update: It has topped the 100F mark, 38.3 in Sa Pobla this afternoon. Coastal highs at about 35, but the humidity has been much lower.

Quite cloudy first up, but already by 08.30 around 27 or 28 degrees. The yellow advice is still in place and will be for the whole of the week, there being no indication of any real change in what is proving to be one of the hottest Augusts on record.
Afternoon update: The cloud lingered for some of another very hot day, but sun out by the afternoon. Highs - 36.5 Sa Pobla, 34.4 on the coast.

Very little to say that is any different. A high at 08.30 of 25.6, humidity up somewhat from yesterday but not oppressive, sun all the way and hot. Ditto the week ahead. The cloud that the forecast had suggested might be around this morning isn't around.
Afternoon update: With hot winds this afternoon, a real boiler, the highest temperature having been 37.3 in Albufera.

The humidity is much lower this morning, but temperatures high - 25.8 the coastal top at 08.45. More mid 30s on the cards for later. Just a chance of some cloud tomorrow morning but without rain. Otherwise, cloudless and high temperatures into and through next week.
Afternoon update: Blisteringly hot. 36.2 inland in Sa Pobla and 33.2 on the coasts.
