Tenerife, 25°C for Christmas
Whilst it was fresh and chilly this morning, it is probably getting close to, well 20, if not 25C, even here on the north of the island today.
I'm pretty sure that will suit many people, including my mother who is snoring away on the patio, suitably overfed, even as I type! :)
Checking the webcam at the Canarian Astrophysics Institute observatory this afternoon (see still image, left), we can see that there was certainly no "White Christmas" in Tenerife this year.
There'll be no skiing on Teide today! OK, so the idea is merely a spoof! :)
However, the record remains unbroken, so far (fingers crossed and wood suitably touched) today for the eleventh consecutive Christmas Day (for which I have figures: even more from memory) on which it has never rained in Tenerife.
Best wishes for a very Feliz Navidad - Merry Christmas - Joyeux Noël - Glückliches Weihnachten from a warm and sunny Christmas afternoon in Tenerife.

"Noël est là,
Ce joyeux Noël, des cadeaux plein les bras,
Qui réchauffe nos coeurs et apporte la joie,
Jour des plus beaux souvenirs,
Plus beau jour de l'année."
