Temperatures are expected to reach up to 35 degrees Celsius in the midlands and peaks of Gran Canaria, and up to 34 degrees in inland areas of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.

This alert will remain active throughout Monday and will be repeated on Tuesday, with similar forecasts. On both days, the affected hours will be between 11:00 AM and 8:00 PM. The northern ridge of Gran Canaria is excluded from these alerts.
