MONDAY WEATHER: Cloudy skies and light showers continue in the Canary Islands
Cloudy conditions are set to continue the Canary Islands today, Monday, with a chance of rain in the north of the islands, particularly during the early hours and later in the evening, according to the latest forecast from AEMET.
As April draws to a close, unsettled weather looks likely to linger across the archipelago over the next few days. Temperatures will remain largely unchanged, offering little variation from the weekend. While no severe weather is expected, it’s worth keeping a light jacket handy, especially if you’re heading north or out in the evening.
Winds will be moderate, blowing from the north across Tenerife and Gran Canaria and from the northwest in the eastern islands of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Southern coastal areas of the more mountainous islands can expect lighter sea breezes.
Sea conditions will be moderately rough, with northerly or north-easterly winds at force 4 to 5, occasionally strengthening to force 6 in south-eastern and western areas. Expect moderate to rough seas, particularly along northern coasts. In the south-west, winds will be lighter and variable, with slight seas. A northerly swell of between 1 and 2 metres is also expected.
