A low-pressure system developing over the Adriatic Sea is moving southeast and is expected to affect Cyprus from Wednesday afternoon, bringing worsening weather conditions and potentially heavy, prolonged rainfall.
According to the Department of Meteorology, weak low pressure currently affects the region, with isolated showers and thunderstorms expected ahead of the approaching system.
The Cyprus heavy rain forecast indicates that conditions will deteriorate from Wednesday afternoon, initially in western areas before spreading gradually across the rest of the island.
Monday: Isolated showers and possible thunderstorms
Today, Monday, the weather will be partly cloudy and occasionally mostly cloudy.
Initially, isolated showers are expected, with the possibility of an isolated thunderstorm, mainly along the western and northwestern coasts.
After midday, developing clouds are expected to bring isolated showers and possibly a thunderstorm, particularly in the mountains, northern areas and inland.
Winds will initially be light and variable at Force 3 on the Beaufort scale, gradually becoming mainly southwesterly to northwesterly, light to moderate at Force 3 to 4.
In southwestern areas, winds may temporarily strengthen to Force 4 to 5.
The sea will generally be calm to slightly rough.
Temperatures are expected to reach:
30°C inland
28°C along the southern and eastern coasts
27°C along the western and northern coasts
20°C in the higher mountains
Monday night: Cloudy spells and coastal showers
Tonight, locally increased cloud cover is expected at intervals, potentially bringing isolated showers to coastal areas.
Winds will gradually become downslope, remaining light at Force 3, while the sea will generally be calm to slightly rough.
Temperatures will fall to around 18°C inland, 21°C along the coasts and 10°C in the higher mountains.
Tuesday: Rain and thunderstorms in several areas
On Tuesday, conditions will remain partly cloudy and occasionally mostly cloudy.
After midday, isolated showers or thunderstorms are expected, mainly in the mountains, inland and northern areas.
Temperatures will remain at approximately the same levels as Monday.
Wednesday: Weather deteriorates from the afternoon
Wednesday will be mostly cloudy, with localised rainfall and isolated thunderstorms expected at intervals, particularly across the western half of the island.
From the afternoon onwards, weather conditions are expected to deteriorate, initially in western Cyprus before gradually spreading to other areas.
Rainfall and thunderstorms could be locally intense or prolonged, according to the Department of Meteorology.
The approaching low-pressure system is expected to bring the most significant change in conditions during this period.
Thursday: Rain continues as temperatures fall
Thursday will remain mostly cloudy, with localised showers and isolated thunderstorms expected at intervals.
Temperatures will gradually decline between Tuesday and Thursday, falling below the seasonal average.
The Cyprus heavy rain forecast therefore points to a marked deterioration in conditions from Wednesday afternoon, with unsettled weather continuing into Thursday.
