How accurate is the BBC weather for Madeira?

What is the weather like in Madeira for 21 days?

Extended 21-day forecasts for Madeira carry lower confidence. They can indicate general trends—like a persistent Azores high bringing dry spells—but day-to-day accuracy drops significantly after 10 days. Check the UK weather hub for updates.
