It rained for about 90 minutes from 9.45am. Caleta has escaped the worst as there's lots of videos of flooded streets in Puerto del Rosario and other places on the island on the Fuerteventura news Facebook pages.

from Diario:

Rain falls in Fuerteventura, with almost eight liters per square meter in Puerto del Rosario.
The rainfall recorded in the capital of Majorca has been the most intense in the Archipelago.
A waterspout has fallen on Thursday morning in Fuerteventura, which has made the ravines run and has also affected with special incidence in Puerto del Rosario, where central streets have suffered floods.

According to the Weather station of the Fuerteventura airport, on Thursday morning 7.7 liters per square meter have been collected in the capital municipality.
Thus, it rained slightly at eight in the morning, with more intensity about ten in the morning and, about 11 in the morning, 5.6 liters per square meter fell, as reflected in the records of the State Meteorological Agency.
The rains experienced this Thursday in the capital of Fuerteventura have been the most intense in the Canary Islands.
 

Not from Diario, this is the Jaifa ravine today:

It certainly was wet yesterday morning as already mentioned.  It did brighten up during the afternoon but was cool and hazy as though we were having a Calima again.

This morning at 7.55am it was 15C but felt cooler in the light wind, a lot of cloud and hazy over the hills to the SW.

               

Today's Caleta forecast -

For a change both forecasts agree a mostly sunny day with no rain forecast, shade temperature to get up to 20C at midday, the UV Factor will reach 4 from 11am through until 2pm, air quality is poor / unhealthy so it looks like we are having another calima but there is no warning for one.

Wind from the NE / ENE all day at 17 to 20 kmph with gusts up to 32kmph.

Sunrise, sunset & tide times -
