[Anne 2009]

How's the weather up the hill now @Janet ? Has it started to improve any?

[Janet]

The weather front is leaving the Canaries now and all access roads are again open to the National Park though the authorities say there is still ice on parts of the roads, and so great care should be taken. The Teleférico will remain closed until at least Wednesday because it remains very windy at altitude, and Aemet is warning of costeros – very rough seas – around the whole of Tenerife from midweek.

It was cloudy on and off all last week when we were there. A few warm days but chilly in the evenings. Never that cold when we're sat in The Wild Geese though 

[Janet]

Going to get wet, and possibly windy ...

There's an Aemet yellow alert for rain tomorrow for the whole of Tenerife, and the Canarian Government has activated its own alert for heavy rains, especially in the south, west and east, from midnight tonight. Rain of up to 70 litres per square metre per 24 hours are anticipated, with meteorologists saying that the rains are likely to come in bands, with the heaviest tomorrow. Saturday could see a slight break in the weather with another band coming on Sunday. It is likely to continue, albeit slightly weaker, into next week. Along with the rains, snow has been forecast for altitude, so we can expect to see roads to Teide closed again, and the seas are likely to be wild, so the usual cautions apply when bathing or simply being near the coast.
