The Aemet has provided an update on the weather conditions in the Canary Islands, indicating that the haze and heat wave will begin to ease on Monday. However, residents and visitors should still prepare for high temperatures in various parts of the archipelago. Specifically, areas such as Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, and Gran Canaria may still experience temperatures reaching up to 30 ºC, particularly in their interior regions and southeastern slopes.
As the week progresses, maximum temperatures are expected to generally decrease, with the most significant drops occurring in the exposed western areas and at mid-altitudes. In the capitals, the forecast predicts a pleasant 22 ºC in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and 21 ºC in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Meanwhile, minimum temperatures will remain mild, leading to warm and even tropical nights in some coastal municipalities, making it a comfortable time for evening strolls along the beach.
Winds will predominantly blow from the west at light to moderate levels, with stronger gusts expected in exposed areas and at higher elevations. The sea will continue to experience swells from the northwest, which could affect maritime activities. Although the heat episode is waning, warm weather is anticipated to persist across various parts of the archipelago at least until Tuesday.
