Temperature drop and cold weather across Cyprus

Cyprus is experiencing a significant drop in temperatures and cooler weather conditions due to a relatively cold air mass that began affecting the island on November 7 and is expected to persist through early next week. Meteorological reports indicate that temperatures will fall 2-4 degrees Celsius below seasonal averages. Specifically, nighttime temperatures are forecast to reach as low as 7-8 degrees in the interior, 10-12 degrees in coastal areas, and 2 degrees at the highest elevations, with frost expected in mountainous regions like Troodos.

While the weather remains generally clear, sporadic clouds and isolated showers are possible, particularly in mountainous and southern areas. Meteorologist Andreas Chrysanthou confirmed that no severe weather warnings are required despite the sharp cooling. Winds are expected to remain moderate to strong, reaching intensities of 5 to 6 Beaufort in certain coastal districts before gradually weakening. Looking ahead, the meteorological service anticipates a transition to weak high pressure, with weather remaining mostly clear through Tuesday, followed by a slight warming trend starting mid-week.
