Forecast
Very warm weather will continue across Tenerife today with sunshine dominating for many areas, especially away from the north. Some cloud is expected at times in northern parts of the island this morning before brighter conditions develop later in the day.
Light haze is also expected, mainly affecting midlands and higher areas of Tenerife. Temperatures are expected to rise slightly further in higher areas while remaining largely steady elsewhere across the island.
The heat is then expected to intensify further from tomorrow onwards, with temperatures forecast to move into the 30s in parts of Tenerife during the weekend as hotter air pushes across the Canary Islands.
Conditions can vary significantly across different parts of the island due to Tenerife’s microclimates, and weather can be completely different just 15 minutes away from one location to another.
