Daily Brief

Cyprus topped out at 37.5°C today, the island's hottest reading at Lefkara, and five stations recorded a tropical night, so it stayed warm well after sunset. No station saw rain in the past 24 hours.

Tomorrow stays hot and mostly dry. Nicosia climbs to 36°C, feeling like 38°C, while Polis Chrysochous also feels close to 38°C off a 34°C high. Larnaca (32°C) and Limassol and Paralimni & Protaras (31°C each) stay in the low thirties with feels-like readings up to 36°C. Paphos is the coolest coastal spot at 29°C. Troodos tops out at a mild 26°C, with the island's only rain chance, 3%. UV stays high everywhere at 7.

The sea remains swim-friendly, around 28-29°C with waves under 0.6m along most coasts.

Inland heat leads the day: Nicosia tops out at 35°C but feels like 39°C under a strong UV index of 7, so keep to the shade at midday. The coast stays gentler — Limassol and Larnaca both reach 31°C (feeling 36°C and 34°C), Polis Chrysochous climbs to 32°C with a muggy 37°C feel, and Paralimni & Protaras sit at 31°C. Paphos is the coolest lowland spot at 28°C, feeling 33°C. Troodos offers the only real relief at 26°C, with just a 3% chance of a shower — no rain is expected anywhere else. It's still full swimming season: sea temperatures sit around 28°C from Paphos to Protaras, with calm waves of 0.2–0.5m. Tomorrow looks much the same, with Nicosia inching up to 36°C and Polis to 34°C.
