AEMET warn of calima and possible storms hitting the Canary Islands
#1
The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has issued a Weather warning for the Canary Islands, forecasting dusty conditions (calima) and increasing temperatures over the eastern islands, particularly at higher altitudes, from today (Wednesday).

Intervals of cloud are expected throughout the archipelago, with a chance of storms developing over Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.

Temperatures are set to rise across the region, accompanied by moderate northerly winds. However, on the high peaks of Tenerife, winds are expected to be strong, with potentially very strong gusts.

Maritime conditions are also expected to be challenging, with northerly or northeasterly winds of force 3 to 5, occasionally reaching force 6. Seas will range from slight to moderate, temporarily becoming rough at times. In southern and southwestern coastal areas, variable winds of force 1 to 3 are forecast, with generally slight to moderate seas. A northerly swell is expected, producing waves around one metre high. Visibility may be reduced temporarily due to rainfall and haze.

Forecast for FUERTEVENTURA
Similar conditions to Lanzarote are forecast, with low clouds on the western coast and mid to high-level cloud across the island during the morning. Light, scattered drizzle is possible, and isolated storms cannot be ruled out. Skies will clear by the afternoon. The calima will primarily affect higher altitudes but may also impact surface levels. Temperatures will rise slightly, potentially reaching 30°C in the southeast. Winds will be light to moderate from the north, with variable light winds inland.
Expected temperatures: Minimum of 18°C and maximum of 28°C
