Just a short post today to note that Tenerife has been reaching high temperatures of up to 42º!  Thankfully there has been no cases of heatstroke bar the odd 1 or 2 that have been swiftly dealt with, but it's worth noting that the electricity companies have noticed large spikes in the usages as Hotels and homes all switch on air conditioning, fans and anything else they can find to help alleviate the heat!

Tenerife's Got Talent, our very own competition, has its Grand Final this Sunday, starting from 3pm onwards.

The venue is the luxurious 5 star Anthelia Hotel in Fañabe, and prices for tickets are €35 for standard and €45 for Platinum.

It will be a great show, and the Winner is guaranteed a contract to perform in Blackpool for a Summer Season, while a top placed winner will also recieve a spot at Birmingham's biggest free festival, including flights and accommodation. (more...)

The Met Office has issued warnings for Tenerife, stating that temperatures are expected to hit 35º+ today and continuing over the weekend.

This is extremely hot, even for Tenerife, and visitors are advised to take necessary precautions, with hats, sunglasses, and sun cream.

With temperatures rising above 30º within Tenerife, the government in Tenerife has issued a ban on open air barbecues in and around forest areas due to an increased risk of fires.

They have begun closing off all open air picnic areas surrounding the forests outside of Mount Teide.

The ban will stay in place as long as the temperatures continue to rise.
