11 Oct
Summary
- Tornado forces 67 evacuations in Murcia
- Majorca under orange alert for heavy rain and flooding
- Brits fight over final alcohol supplies in supermarkets
On October 11, 2025, Spain is grappling with the aftermath of a tornado that hit the Murcia region and the impending arrival of Storm Alice, which is set to batter the holiday island of Majorca.
The tornado that struck Murcia yesterday forced 67 people to evacuate the area, which has been under a red alert due to the raging winds and storms. Terrifying footage showed the twister swirling beneath a blanket of thick grey clouds, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake.
Now, Majorca is bracing to be the next victim of Storm Alice as forecasters warn the extreme weather could smash into the island. The Spanish weather agency has upgraded the alert to orange for the north and northeast, with heavy downpours expected throughout the day. In popular tourist areas like Alcudia, Arta, and Pollensa, rainfall could reach up to 40 liters per square meter in just one hour.

The worsening weather has sparked panic in parts of Spain, with Brits reportedly fighting over the final supplies of alcohol in supermarkets. Resorts along the south coast, popular with UK holidaymakers, have already endured weeks of relentless downpours, and Storm Alice has brought new chaos, with up to 250mm of rain expected to hammer the region by Sunday.
As the storm continues to charge through the Mediterranean, Majorca could be the next to face nature's wrath, just as holidaymakers thought their autumn getaways were safe.
