The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) has released its forecast for this Monday, predicting partly cloudy skies that will become cloudy in the northern and eastern areas of the islands, with a chance of weak and scattered rainfall in the archipelago's more mountainous regions.

Maximum temperatures will generally rise, while the wind will remain light in most areas. In the eastern province, the wind will be variable, and in the western province, it will predominantly be from the northwest. In the central peaks of Tenerife, southwest winds are expected, locally strong, with occasional very strong gusts.
Regarding sea conditions, west or northwest winds of force 2 to 4 are anticipated, and variable winds of force 1 to 3, resulting in rippled or choppy seas. Southwest swell will generate waves of 1 meter in the western islands, while in the eastern islands, northwest swell will produce waves of 2 to 3 meters. Occasional showers and fair visibility are also expected.
In Tenerife, skies will be partly cloudy, becoming cloudy in the north and east during the morning, with a possibility of weak and scattered rain, especially in the east in the afternoon. Minimum temperatures will remain stable, and maximum temperatures will see a slight increase, more noticeable on the western slope.
