“The emergency technical head of the Cabildo de Gran Canaria takes stock of the work carried out during the night and is optimistic about Tuesday’s day if temperatures and wind give truce.
«The most active points affect Tejeda and Valsendero, but thanks to the calm wind and the temperature has dropped the fire has stopped. If the wind is still cool and calm, although we will have to wait at dawn to make a new assessment, and with all the troops working including the air means, we can have good news in the next few hours, ”said Grillo.”
“The calm wind has slowed the progress of the fire as reported by the Government of the Canary Islands, although it continues on the south flank now slowed down, without entering Inagua, thanks to the good weather conditions. The president of the Government, Ángel Víctor Torres, considers the situation “good news”.”
