Microclimate

Once again I managed to find an apartment in a microclimate.

Alojera is in the west of the island and since the Canary Islands are in the northeast trade winds, it is on the side facing away from the wind.

Therefore it is drier on this side of the island and since the valley is still facing south, the sun soon shines over the mountain.

The clouds on the east side are pushed up the mountains by the northeast trade winds and get stuck on the mountain peaks. If they then manage to get down over the mountain and move down into the valley, they hit the warm rock warmed by the sun. The air warms up and the clouds dissolve.

So it is often cloudy in the valleys in the north or east, and in the mountains in the cloud forest anyway, but as soon as we drive into our valley, sunny weather greets us. 🌞❤️Baca lagi
