Weather conditions in Cyprus during mid-October 2026
A weak low-pressure system affected Cyprus between October 16 and 17, 2026, bringing scattered showers, localized thunderstorms, and increased cloud cover, primarily in the mountains, inland regions, and northern coasts. Temperatures during this period remained slightly below seasonal averages, ranging between 25 and 26 degrees Celsius inland and on the coast, with mountain areas cooling down to around 6 to 14 degrees Celsius depending on the elevation. Winds generally blew from south-westerly to north-westerly directions at 3 to 4 Beaufort, occasionally reaching 5 Beaufort in southern and eastern coastal areas, resulting in slightly rough sea conditions.
From Sunday, October 18, the atmospheric conditions began to transition as a weak high-pressure system moved into the region. This led to gradual clearing and more stable weather characterized by intervals of sunshine and increased local cloud cover, particularly along the coasts. Temperatures remained steady throughout the start of the following week, with no significant changes expected. Meteorological services forecasted predominantly fair weather for Monday and Tuesday, as the island moved away from the earlier period of instability.
