Daily Brief

Today's highest reading on the island was 39°C at Pentakomo, a single station well above the 24–26°C most coastal towns saw. No station recorded rain.

Tomorrow looks mild and settled for most of the island. Nicosia reaches 25°C (feels like 25°C), Larnaca 26°C and Limassol 25°C, with feels-like values of 24°C on the coast. Paralimni and Protaras reach 25°C and Polis Chrysochous 25°C. The exception is Paphos: 24°C, feeling like 23°C, with a 68% chance of rain, so keep an umbrella handy in the west. Limassol has a 20% chance. Troodos stays cool at 11°C by day, feeling like 8°C, and 7°C at night, so pack layers for the hills.

UV is moderate to high, up to 6 in Limassol and Larnaca, so sunscreen still matters at midday.

The sea is still swimmable at about 25°C, with waves of 0.7 to 0.9 m.

A mild but unsettled Friday across Cyprus: showers are likely today, with the highest chances in Polis Chrysochous and the Troodos (100%), Nicosia (82%) and Limassol (65%). Keep a rain jacket handy, especially if you are heading to the hills.

Temperatures are comfortable. Nicosia reaches 26°C (low 15°C), Larnaca 25°C, Limassol 24°C, Paphos 22°C and Paralimni & Protaras 24°C. Troodos stays cool at 14°C, feeling like 11°C, so dress in layers. UV is still moderate to high at 5–6, worth remembering in the sunny gaps.

The sea remains pleasant for a swim at 25°C, though waves of 0.7–1.1 m mean Limassol and Paphos are choppier than Larnaca and Protaras.

Tomorrow is similar and a little drier: 25°C in Nicosia and Limassol, 26°C in Larnaca, 13°C in Troodos.
