Gran Canaria Weather: Soggy Saturday Coming Up

Rain coming in on Saturday Rain coming in on Saturday www.photosgrancanaria.com

Friday will be mostly sunny, but Saturday is a rainy day in Gran Canaria.

Weather alert for Saturday 30 OctoberToday looks like a pretty standard Autumn day in Gran Canaria with clouds growing over the highlands during the day but unlikely to ruin the fun on the beaches.

Tomorrow Saturday, however, is a whole different story. A wet front is forecast to for the whole of the Canary Islands. 

The north of Gran Canaria is on alert for rain as we expect up to 60mm in 12 hours. While that's a lot of water it isn't expected to cause any damage as it will fall gradually. 

The south of Gran Canaria won't get as much water but it should see showers.

We're not expecting sustained strong winds but there may be the odd gust. The sea will be rough and messy so please don't sunbathe on the rocks over the weekend. 

Sunday will start cloudy and improve throughout the day. 

Temperatures over the weekend are forecast to drop so you may even need a jumper in the evenings. Don't panic, it's in the cupboard behind the breadmaker.

  • 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.
