Weather Forecast: A Light Calima This Weekend & A Sunny Week

Weather Forecast: A sunny week ahead in Gran Canaria Weather Forecast: A sunny week ahead in Gran Canaria www.photosgrancanaria.com

28.10.2016: The rain has moved off to the north and the next week will be sunny with a touch of dust over the weekend. 

East Gran Canaria may get a few showers today due to cloud that has been sucked up from the south by the retreating weather system. This will have gone by tomorrow and the next week should sunny with a southeast wind bringing a touch of calima dust. 

South Gran Canaria received some decent rainfall over the past few days with 152 litres per square metre recorded in San Bartolomé de Tirajana. It's not enough to fill the reservoirs, but it's a good start. 

Just to highlight how uneven these episodes are in the Canary Islands, Las Palmas city didn't even get 10 litres per square metre.

After a few days of monster surf along Gran Canaria's north shore, the waves will be smaller this week. Wednesday looks like the best day to hit the water.

  • The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast
    The Best Gran Canaria Weather Forecast

    The single most common question we get in the Gran Canaria Info group is...

    What is the weather going to be like during my holiday?

    The answer is almost always the same: If you are going to south Gran Canaria's resorts, it is very likely to be sunny every day. Yes, even in the winter. Yes, even though your weather app says it is going to be cloudy. Yes, even in January. And in February, etc.

    Obviously it does sometimes rain in Gran Canaria, even in the sun-baked south, and there are occassional cloudy days. 

    To check for these rare rain and clouds there is no point using generic weather apps because they use data that averages out the weather and temperature across Gran Canaria.

    This means that the forecast for Puerto Rico and other resorts includes weather and temperatrure predictions for inland and highland areas that are cooler and cloudier.

    So, instead of believing your current weather app use the Spanish weather service website called the AEMET. It's website has detailed and very accurate forecasts for individual resorts, town and even beaches.

    Here's the forecast for the Mogán area including Puerto Rico.

    The mobile website works very well in English although the app is only in Spanish at the moment.
