Daily Brief

Cyprus peaked at 36.9°C today, the island's hottest reading measured at Athalassa. Five stations recorded a tropical night overnight, with lows staying uncomfortably high, and no rain fell anywhere over the past 24 hours.

Tomorrow's headline is inland heat: Nicosia climbs to 37°C, feeling like 39°C, and Polis Chrysochous matches that mugginess at 34°C with a 39°C feels-like. The coast runs a touch cooler — Limassol and Larnaca both top out near 33°C (feels-like 37°C), Paralimni & Protaras 32°C, and Paphos the mildest coastal spot at 30°C. Troodos stays the escape option at 25°C. No rain is expected anywhere, and UV climbs to a very high 8 across most regions, so shade and sunscreen matter at midday.

The sea stays warm and inviting for a swim, holding around 28-29°C along the coast with calm waves under a metre.
