Cyprus weather forecast: shift to instability and incoming storm system

Cyprus is currently being affected by weak low pressure, bringing a mix of partly cloudy skies, isolated rain, and potential thunderstorms, particularly in the mountains, the interior, and the northern regions. Temperatures are expected to reach approximately 30-32 degrees Celsius in the interior and 28-30 degrees in coastal areas, while the higher mountains will see temperatures around 20 degrees. The atmosphere will periodically contain traces of Saharan dust, and winds are expected to reach up to 4-5 Beaufort in some areas.

A significant shift in weather patterns is expected starting Wednesday afternoon. A new low-pressure system, forming in the Adriatic Sea and moving southeast, is forecasted to reach Cyprus, bringing heavy rainfall and thunderstorms that may last until Friday. Authorities have warned that the intensity of this system could lead to flooding, and residents are advised to remain vigilant. Meteorologists expect a more precise outlook on the system's trajectory to be available by Monday, as the island transitions from the current mild conditions to a more winter-like weather scenario.
