meteoblue

meteoblue is a well-known weather service that’s incredibly helpful. The platform provides easy-to-understand weather forecasts, climate information, and handy tools.

I use this meteoblue mostly. I like the satellite images and of course that it is professional. When you scroll down, there is a satellite image/movie. Lots of clouds might mean rain.
Raymond

By using advanced technology and weather stations, it gives you accurate, location-specific predictions, so you can plan your beach days, outdoor activities, or hikes with confidence, taking into account the island’s ever-changing weather.

For temperature, I found the meteoblue model to be very good. For wind, nobody seems to have a clue.

Aemet

Aemet, Spain’s State Meteorological Agency, plays a pivotal role in keeping residents and visitors to Gran Canaria well-informed about the island’s weather conditions.

Powered by GetYourGuide

With a reputation for reliability and accuracy, Aemet provides comprehensive weather forecasts, real-time updates, and valuable climate data that are essential for planning outdoor activities, beach trips, and other experiences.

Aemet is the most reliable in my opinion. But as said, the weather is notoriously unpredictable, so even they can get it wrong.

Weather & Radar

Weather & Radar, a widely-used weather forecasting app and website, is a valuable resource for checking the weather. This versatile platform offers up-to-the-minute weather data, detailed forecasts, and radar imagery, allowing users to stay well-informed about the ever-changing weather conditions.

Powered by GetYourGuide

With its user-friendly interface and accurate information, it’s a reliable companion for ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience in this captivating destination.
Website Weather & Radar

With a bit of experience, cloud radar and cloud forecasts can give you an idea about clouds and rain showers in the next 4–8 hours. Which is good if you want to go hiking or go for a bike ride. I use the Android app from Weather & Radar.
