Severe storm and tornadoes in Mallorca - Spain (photos and videos)
Tomas Pucik
I have been observing whole situation, overall atmospheric conditions were very favourable for organized convection, including whole facet of severe weather.
Also by looking on radar, there was a strong bow echo passing over the island of Mallorca at that time, but judging by videos, there must have been an embedded supercell, possibly HP. Tornado is obvious from them, with wall cloud and clear slot in the area.
I do not know exact wind measurements, but strongest gust was measured at airport, 111 km/h though winds were much stronger in some places. Also , extremely heavy rain was recorded.

There's a whole host of footage on YouTube now - very impressive storm. Pretty scary too if you were on the island looking to the SW, and seeing a monster HP coming towards you with no real place to run!
