Tenerife Weather

The forecast for Wednesday is now a bit firmer, and there will be an uncomfortable few days in store with the coming heatwave accompanied by a heavy calima and very muggy conditions. These are expected to be the hottest days of the year so far, but also with an instability which could see some rain in parts. Although this could be stormy at times, it is far likelier just to be scattered drops.

Exactly what I hate:  enough to make your car totally dusty.  Needing to be washed.  Grrrrr.

I finished cleaning the windows half an hour before they forecast it ...

Janet, I am not even bothering.  You do it and within a couple of hours it is back to the way it was before.

Note, I am not complaining about the temperature which I've been waiting for.

I'm just enjoying the relatively cool breeze we have at the moment ... because I doubt it'll last long with the heat that's coming. That's supposed to be a bajo-medio calima, though, so maybe in the top half of the medianías we won't get hit so bad with it up here ...

Hace un poco tiempo Mujer since we had a report from up North !

[Janet]

It mightn't be as bad as they thought! Tomorrow's orange alert has been reduced to yellow, and that yellow has been extended to Thursday. Temperatures to a maximum of 35º are expected.

Hi there....reporting from Puerto de la Cruz  Wednesday July 19...19:30

Well it's been a warm day but not unbearable and this afternoon there was a breeze and despite the calima it has been pleasant.  Went out to lunch and sat outdoors with an overhead awning and both my friend and I agreed that the temperature was just perfect....could not have been better.

Here is the La Quinta webcam view around 8:30 this morning over the Orotava Valley where you see the calima dust creeping in and another photo taken late this afternoon at a coffee bar overlooking Pto. de la Cruz where the view to the west was hazy but the breeze was absolutely delicious.  Temperature comfortable. 

Now at 7:30 pm, my shaded windowsill thermometer reports a temperature of 24.2C with humidity slightly above normal at 66%.
Normal for this window is 63%.  All in all it's very comfortable here.
