Then come over our way!  I assume that's what everybody from this side is doing.

More and more the forecasters are becoming clearer that this lovely spell of a few days with higher temperatures and calm weather will be replaced from Thursday by a borrasca. Quite how much it will affect us is still unclear – over the past few days some have said it will bypass us and reach Morocco, others have said light rainfall in the north of Tenerife – but a "period of instability" caused by a depression from the north seems to be heading our way in a few days time.

There is still considerable uncertainty and no real consensus about what exactly is coming in terms of this weekend's weather. The general view of meteorologists and weather agencies is that a period of instability will start tomorrow, and last until at least Sunday, bringing some rain to the islands, stormy in parts. The first rain could arrive this evening with increasing cloud cover from this afternoon. Any rainfall is expected to be weak, however, with temperatures starting to drop. Saturday and Sunday are forecast to be dark dull days with intensifying rainfall, possibly with some stormy squalls and, in the medianías and at altitude strong winds, and temperatures falling even further.

 The Canarian Government's Dirección General de Seguridad y Emergencias has issued alerts for rain throughout the whole of the Canaries and for high winds at altitude in Tenerife and La Palma. The alerts come into force at midnight tonight. The DGSE has also drawn attention to the safety guidelines for storms, which are detailed HERE.

I can report very high winds at low altitude, namely, Puerto Santiago.  It is blowing like crazy and it sounds like banshees in the flat.

[Janet]

and as calm as anything in the medianías!

we must presume this will change overnight!!
