What changes on Monday and Tuesday for visitors?

On Monday 9 November the forecast for Fuerteventura shows cloudy spells and only a slim chance of light rain in the early hours. The wind is light and comes from the west.

From midday some cloud may form in the east of the island. The forecast does not rule out a stray drop.

The sea stays rough, though. On the north and west coasts of the easternmost and westernmost islands, waves may top two metres, according to the forecast.

Tuesday 10 November stays relatively calm, says the island forecast. Winds are light and changeable.

What happened on Fuerteventura on Sunday?

The Canary Islands emergency service declared the pre-alert level (prealerta) from 11:30 on Sunday 8 November. The cause was rain and coastal phenomena.

For Fuerteventura, Lanzarote and La Graciosa the service expected locally heavy showers of 20 litres per square metre in an hour. The rain could last until midnight.

According to Sunday's reports, the front was weaker and less organised than forecast. No damage or incidents are reported on Fuerteventura, and no measured rainfall is available.

Other islands fared worse: the emergency service counted 16 incidents across the Canaries, mostly fallen trees and landslides. One person was injured on La Palma, and on La Gomera the authorities closed the CV-14 road as a precaution.

Seven flights to La Palma diverted, three of them landing at Tenerife South. The sources do not confirm whether Bruna is the first of two appearances of the weather pattern described for Fuerteventura.

What will Wednesday 11 November bring?

For Wednesday, Noticias Fuerteventura gives high odds of widespread rain on Fuerteventura, with a moderate wind and strong gusts from the south. The report appeared on 6 November, five days earlier.

The sea keeps building: waves of more than three metres are announced for the north and west of the island. Over the weekend the forecast had already given waves of up to three metres there.

The AEMET information note quoted in the report concerns the west of the Iberian Peninsula, not the Canaries. No Tuesday or Wednesday forecast from RTVC, AEMET or the Canary government could be found.

The report gives no wind speeds, rainfall in millimetres or warning level. There is also no name yet for the low.

The state weather service AEMET had confirmed nothing by Monday. It is unclear whether it will issue a warning for Wednesday.

How reliable is the forecast for this week?

According to a report of 5 November, Meteored's weather models showed up to three low-pressure centres at once. A possible interaction between the lows, the so-called Fujiwhara effect, makes their track uncertain.

The weekly outlook of the European model ECMWF points to above-average rain on the Canaries for 9 to 15 November, with considerable uncertainty. That assessment does not single out Fuerteventura.

Earlier episodes mostly passed off lightly on the island. On 2 October 2025 a rain pre-alert applied to Fuerteventura and Lanzarote from 06:00, and reports say only very isolated rain was measured.

On 12 November 2025, during Storm Claudia, two flights bound for Lanzarote diverted to Fuerteventura airport, airport operator AENA said. Both aircraft landed without incident.

Who issues warnings, and where can visitors check?

The pre-alert level is declared by the Dirección General de Emergencias (the Canary government's directorate-general for emergencies). It draws on information from AEMET and spreads the alerts through the 112 emergency call centre.

AEMET itself issues warnings at yellow, orange and red levels. According to the sources reviewed, the Canary government's pre-alert is a separate regional tier alongside them.

Before Wednesday, it is worth looking at AEMET's Canaries warnings page. The Canary government's emergency notices are the other place to check.

It could not be established whether the island government (Cabildo) or the municipalities have decided on any measures. No reports exist on flight or ferry services on Fuerteventura either, so anyone flying should ask the airline beforehand.
