Specifically, Tenerife has been placed under a yellow warning due to anticipated high temperatures in the metropolitan, eastern, southern, and western areas of the island, effective from 11:00 AM this Wednesday. The maximum temperatures are expected to range between 34 and 36 degrees Celsius, and in certain locations, they could even reach 37 degrees.
This warning will remain in effect for the following day as well, predominantly impacting the central areas in the west, south, and east of the island.
