The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has activated a yellow alert for maximum temperatures in the province of Las Palmas for this Wednesday, although the capital Gran Canaria will be spared the most extreme values.

The thermometers will register a minimum of 22 degrees early in the morning, around 07:00 hours, and the maximum will be reached late in the afternoon, around 19:00 hours, at 26 degrees. These values will be very similar to those recorded on Tuesday, with no significant changes. The wind will blow from the north, with moderate intensity.
The yellow alert, which does affect other municipalities in the province such as Santa Lucía de Tirajana, where maximums of 36 degrees are expected, does not extend to the capital. In Santa Lucía de Tirajana, the forecast indicates clear skies throughout the day, with minimum temperatures of 23 degrees and maximums of 36.

Temperatures will remain stable, with a maximum of 27 degrees and a minimum of 23. The wind will continue to blow from the north.
Looking ahead to Friday, the AEMET forecasts a day with no probability of precipitation. The first half of the day will be clear, but as the afternoon progresses, the sky will tend to cover again. Temperatures will range between 23 and 27 degrees, and the wind will be light from the north.
The weekend will bring mostly clear skies in the capital Gran Canaria. On Saturday, temperatures will range from 23 to 28 degrees, while on Sunday they will rise slightly, with minimums of 25 and maximums of 29 degrees. The wind will continue to blow from the north.
