There are mixed forecasts for the comiing week a couple say there will be an increase in the temperatures starting from tomorrow and could get as high as the mid to high 30,s, and one that suggests next week could be a very showery week???

It is now 08:30 shade temperature is 22C and the cloud is clearing very quickly.

The thing is in Fuerteventura you can never be sure about temperatures and also winds, especially when there's a spell of sizzling Weather. Last time we had that spell of very hot Weather, a few weeks ago,  I drove from PdR to Antigua, I left 38 celsius in PdR and found 27 in Antigua, and on other occasions you find the opposite

Your forecasts always appreciated, thanks
