“Humidity is low, around 20%since we are above the thermal inversion zone (above what is known as the sea of clouds) and the temperatures will be around 30 and 32 degrees“, refers Suárez who adds that “although the wind in the place has not been very intense in recent hours, and has a north-northeast component, there have been gusts of about 30 kilometers per hourBut the expert warns that “at somewhat lower levels than the place where the forest fire originated, the winds are more intense and accelerate in the most exposed areas.”
In the last 24 hours there have been gusts of wind of 10 to 20 kilometers per hour with some gusts at night of up to 30 kilometers per hour.
Although the meteorologist remembered that For this Friday, a general drop in temperatures is expected, thermometers still remain at relatively high values. In this sense, Suárez indicated that some warnings will continue due to high temperatures with maximums of 34 and 36 degrees that, in the case of Tenerife, will affect the south and west slopes, not so much in the north. On Saturday the drop in temperatures will continue, although for Sunday we expect a new rise.
According to the forecasts, no changes are expected in terms of the air masses that can provide a lot of humidity, “so the weather conditions are not entirely favorableSuarez stressed.
