The Canary Islands will experience a notable shift in weather conditions today (Tuesday), with cooler temperatures and strong winds affecting various regions according to the State Meteorological Agency (AEMET).
The islands will see slight temperature drops in inland areas, accompanied by moderate northeasterly winds with strong gusts in coastal and low-lying areas of the northwest and southeast of the mountainous islands, as well as in the inland regions of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. These conditions are expected to be most pronounced during the first half of the day.
The sea will also be affected, with northerly or northeasterly winds producing wave heights of 1 to 2 metres. Additionally, there will be a significant swell, with waves increasing to a strong swell offshore in many parts of Canary Island waters.
