Daily Brief

Today topped out at 28.1°C at Pareklisia, the island's highest reading, and three stations recorded rain.

Tomorrow looks mild and mostly settled. Nicosia reaches 26°C (feels like 26°C) after a 15°C night, Larnaca 25°C (feels like 26°C) and Limassol 24°C (feels like 25°C). Paphos is the cooler, less settled spot at 22°C, with a 33% chance of rain; Nicosia has 25%, and most other coasts are at 18% or lower. UV stays high on the south coast, up to 6, so sun protection still matters around midday.

Troodos is much cooler: 12°C at best and 10°C feels-like, so bring a jacket if you head to the mountains.

The sea is still warm at about 25°C, though waves are up to 1.6 m at Paphos and 1.5 m at Limassol, so swim with care there.

Rain is the story today: showers are very likely across most of the island, with a 100% chance in Nicosia, Paphos, Polis and Troodos, 98% in Limassol and 73% in Larnaca and Paralimni. Take an umbrella and leave extra time on the roads.

Temperatures stay mild. Nicosia reaches 24°C (low 17°C), Larnaca 24°C, Limassol 23°C and Paphos only 21°C. Troodos is much cooler at 13°C, feeling like 11°C, so bring a jacket if you head to the mountains. UV peaks at 5 to 6, still worth sunscreen between the showers.

The sea is warm at 24.5 to 25.4°C, but waves reach 1.5 m off Paphos and 1.2 m off Limassol, so swim with care there. Calmer water in Larnaca (0.6 m) and Protaras (0.7 m).
