Flash Floods in Majorca! 9 dead,
Terribly sad. Just listening to the news regarding a flash flood.Apparently, they had a month's rain in just 4 hours. Dozens of cars were washed away in the street, 9 confirmed dead with many still missing. It appears that among the dead are two British tourists caught whilst travelling in a taxi.
Its hard to believe this happened in Majorca!

While I was away on Holiday last week in Cyprus, there were severe storms across the mainland of Greece and out into the Adriatic which affected many of the Greek islands. I heard there was a lot of damage and there may have been deaths too.

It is tragic that you look forward to your holiday and this happens.When my children were young, we used to go to Majorca on holiday a lot and never experienced anything like that.
It was always said, that October was the rainy season and to avoid going then.
