The weather system heading towards the Canary Islands looks like it will drop plenty of rain on the western islands but there is a good chance that it will stall before reaching Gran Canaria.

26.04.2017: Gran Canaria will get showers and maybe the odd bit of thunder and lightning over the weekend, but there will be plenty of sunshine in between the clouds.

17.04.2017: Gran Canaria had a hot and sunny Easter with temperatures peaking at over 30ºC on Sunday and today. It looks like summer is well on the way.

07.04.2017: This weekend and the beginning of next week will be calm and sunny in Gran Canaria but there is an outside chance of a spot of real weather towards the middle of Easter week.

27.03.2017: The cool air that made the weekend a tad chilly has gone and a lovely high pressure sitting close to the Canary Islands will warm things up.

20.03.2017: Wow, that was fun! After a stormy weekend in Gran Canaria with heavy rain showers all over Gran Canaria things are getting back to normal so expect sunshine in south Gran Canaria this week.

13.03.2017: The hot air that gave Gran Canaria record high temperatures over the weekend has now gone completely thanks to brisk Trade Winds blowing down from the North Atlantic. 

06.03.2017: This week in Gran Canaria, the weather will be hot and sunny across the island with some calima dust in the air.

A blob of cold, humid Polar air sitting over southern Spain threatens to bring cold and rain to Gran Canaria and the eastern Canary Islands this week. 

14.02.2017: There's a blob of cloud and rain heading towards us and due to arrive on Wednesday, then we expect a period of warm, sunny weather for the rest of the week.
