Weather update for Cyprus: transition to cooler temperatures and potential storms

On November 7, 2026, Cyprus is experiencing the effects of weak low pressure, bringing localized cloudiness, isolated rain, and the potential for short thunderstorms, particularly in mountainous and southern regions. Meteorological authorities have warned that these storms could include hail, with winds expected to strengthen, reaching 5 to 6 Beaufort in northern and eastern coastal areas by morning.

A significant temperature drop is anticipated, as the island is affected by a relatively cold air mass from Friday night through Monday. Overnight temperatures are forecast to fall to 10°C in inland areas, 12°C on the coasts, and as low as 4°C in the higher mountains, where localized frost may occur. By Saturday, weather conditions will become mostly clear at night, though the cool trend is expected to persist.

Looking ahead, the weather is projected to stabilize slightly as weak high pressure is expected to arrive on Saturday. While temperatures will remain lower than seasonal averages through Tuesday, the initial unstable conditions characterized by rain and storms are forecast to give way to generally clearer skies, although authorities advise residents to monitor official updates regarding local weather alerts.
