The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has activated weather warnings for adverse sea conditions. The warning affects Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Palma and El Hierro.
On March 13, the AEMET weather warning will also cover northern Tenerife and Gran Canaria.
The forecast shows that strong northwest winds will bring very strong gusts on Monday and Tuesday.
The more mountainous islands will have rainfall throughout the week, however, scientists are reportedly worried about the lack of rainfall on the islands.
Lanzarote and Fuerteventura have had 75 percent less rain than usual according to scientists.

Other areas of Spain including tourist hotspots Ibiza and Mallorca, have experienced a wet winter with heavier rainfall than usual.
The Costa del Sol is likely to experience rainfall in the coming week as well after a period of drought.
The rainfall in areas such as Malaga and Granada could be very heavy and flood warnings have been issued for some areas.
The director of Aemet said: “It will help to ease the drought situation, but will not be enough to resolve it.”
