Sunday: a calmer day with sunny spells

Sunday brings a quieter end to the week across the Islands, with fewer clouds and a pleasant feel overall. While localised afternoon build-ups may form over the south of Tenerife and La Palma, they are expected to remain dry. Elsewhere, it’s mostly clear skies and plenty of sunshine.

General conditions

Temperatures will dip slightly in the eastern islands, with coastal highs ranging between 22°C and 29°C. Winds are light to moderate from the north-northeast, picking up a bit over the southeast of Gran Canaria in the afternoon. At higher elevations, a light to moderate northwesterly breeze is expected, shifting to westerly on El Teide. The ocean is largely calm, with slightly choppy conditions near southern shores, rougher waters further out, and a northwest ocean swell of around 1 to 1.5 metres.
