Strong Winds In Gran Canaria But Heavy Rain Unlikely

Strong wind and some rain this week in Gran Canaria Strong wind and some rain this week in Gran Canaria photosgrancanaria.com

A low pressure system just to the east of the Canary Islands will cause strong winds for the next two days but heavy rain is unlikely.

North Gran Canaria will get some showers over the next few days and there may be a shower or two in the south. It is unlikely to snow anywhere in the Canary Islands except right at the top of Teide volcano as the wind is too strong. (gusts up to 90kmph are forecast). 

The Canary Islands are on alert for strong winds today and tomorow so please be careful close to the sea and up in the highlands. This is especially important on Tuesday when the whole island is on yellow alert for rough seas and the highlands on orange alert for strong winds.

That said, this kind of Cold Drop or Cold Snap is unpredictable so we could get a surprise thunderstorm anywhere in Gran Canaria. 

By Wednesday the wind will have faded and south Gran Canaria should be back in its bubble of sunshine.

    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.
