The Canary Islands begin the week under a veil of Saharan dust and high cloud, with temperatures climbing sharply and the eastern islands feeling the heat most. Isolated showers and the odd storm are possible inland on the mountainous isles, while calima settles over mid-altitudes and summits on southern slopes.
General outlook
Mid and high cloud will dominate, with scattered and occasional showers likely in the interior of the mountainous islands. An isolated storm cannot be ruled out on the western isles. Calima will be at its thickest across mid-altitudes and summits on south-facing slopes.
Daytime temperatures are on the rise, particularly on the eastern islands. The mercury could hit 30–32C in the interior and southern half of La Gomera, Tenerife and Gran Canaria, while parts of inland and northern Fuerteventura and Lanzarote may see local readings of 34C.
Winds will be light and variable along the coasts of the western islands and Gran Canaria, with an easterly flow dominating further east. Over the highest summits, expect strong south-westerlies. Ocean swell from the north-northeast will bring waves of around 1.5 metres to the north coasts and the western shoreline of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, with slightly choppy conditions along southern coasts.
Tenerife
