Residents and visitors can expect a largely cloudy start to Tuesday across the Canary Islands, particularly in northern areas, as the latest forecast from the State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) predicts extensive low cloud and strengthening trade winds across the archipelago.

Cloud cover is expected to dominate the north of the islands below around 900 metres, although clearer skies should develop in many areas as the day progresses.

At sea, northeast winds of force 4 to 5 are forecast, temporarily strengthening to force 6 in southeastern and northwestern coastal areas. Sea conditions will be rough, with moderate swells increasing to strong swells in exposed areas. Along western coasts, lighter and more variable winds are expected.
