Total Solar Eclipse on August 12 in Mallorca: What Will Happen
During the total solar eclipse, the Moon will completely cover the Sun for a few minutes, causing a sudden drop in daylight, a noticeable decrease in temperature, and the appearance of the solar corona.
Mallorca is strategically positioned to experience this phenomenon, especially in elevated west-facing areas where the sea horizon remains unobstructed.
August 12 also coincides with one of the most meteorologically stable periods of the Balearic summer, increasing the likelihood of clear skies.
