Heavy rains swept across parts of Cyprus today, offering a welcome reprieve from an intense heatwave that has gripped the island. The sudden downpours were a surprise for many residents, who took to social media to share their experiences and videos on the popular "ΚΑΙΡΟΦΙΛΟΙ ΚΥΠΡΟΥ" page.

The island is experiencing a mix of weather conditions due to seasonal low pressure. While most areas are seeing mostly clear skies with occasional low clouds, the highlands and some inland regions are experiencing isolated showers. This unexpected rain is a stark contrast to the sweltering temperatures that have been the norm.

Cypriots have been quick to document the wild weather, posting videos and photos of the heavy rains. Many are expressing relief at the sudden change, as the heatwave has made daily life challenging. The rain has provided a brief but welcome break from the relentless heat, bringing cooler temperatures and a sense of refreshment.
