Cyprus weather forecast: sunny conditions with potential afternoon storms
A weak low-pressure system is currently affecting the region, leading to mostly sunny weather after the dissipation of local morning fog and low clouds. Temperatures are expected to reach approximately 35°C in inland areas, 27-29°C on the coasts, and 25°C in the higher mountains, though one source notes a range of 33-36°C inland. Afternoon cloud development is anticipated, bringing isolated rain or thunderstorms, primarily in mountainous and interior regions, with potential hail in stronger storms. Winds will shift from light and variable to moderate southwesterly or northwesterly at 3 to 4 Beaufort, occasionally reaching 5 Beaufort in southeastern coastal areas. Nighttime temperatures will drop to around 17-20°C in inland and coastal regions and 15-16°C in the mountains. Similar weather patterns, including clear mornings followed by increased cloud cover and isolated afternoon showers, are expected to persist through Friday and Saturday. Sea conditions are forecast to be calm to slightly turbulent.
