Gran Canaria Weather: Snow And Rain Forecast This Week

Snow forecast in the Gran Canaria & Canary Islands mountains this week Snow forecast in the Gran Canaria & Canary Islands mountains this week photosgrancanaria.com

A cold snap heading towards the eastern Canary Islands from the north is expected to bring rain and thunderstorm to Gran Canaria and snow to the very top of the island.

The high-altitude low-pressure system arrives on Monday and will be around until at least Thursday. 

On Monday north Gran Canaria can expect cold air, showers and maybe thunderstorms with hail. The highlands could well get snowfall. The south, protected by the highlands from the worst of the weather, may get rain but should also see some sunshine. Air temperatures won't be above 20ºC.

On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday we'll get more of the same. After that, the cold air should fade away and the weather will return to normal.

We'll update if there are significant changes to the forecast.

    Gran Canaria Tip: What Are The Best Car Hire Companies?

    This is one of the most common questions we get in our Facebook Group (with over 30,000 members) and fortunately, it is an easy one to answer. The Gran Canaria Info admin team and the fans in our Facebook group agree...

    The best car hire companies in Gran Canaria are local ones with desk at the airport and honest pricing policies that don't have any hidden insurance or fuel deposit costs. They just rent you a good car at a good price with no fuss at all. 

    We recommend Mr Car Hire Gran Canaria (Nick); an idependent car rental professional who works with all the main local rental companies in Gran Canaria. This means that he can always find you a good deal.

    Mr Car Hire also offers fully comprehensive insurance on all car rental, three-day bookings, and delively of your car right to your door anywhere in Gran Canaria. 

    We advise all Gran Canaria visitors to avoid booking the cheapest possible car on generic car rental websites or via their flight company because you often end up paying large deposits, extra fuel and insurance costs and all kinds of other costs once you arrive to pick up your car at the airport.
