It's getting warmer, with temperatures reaching 24°C along the coast. Lovely. Unfortunately, the clouds haven't quite accepted that sunshine is the main attraction, and a few showers could still gatecrash the afternoon.
Weather Bulletin
A weak high-pressure system is affecting the area, keeping conditions relatively settled. Nothing too dramatic, although the clouds clearly have their own agenda.
Today, skies will be partly cloudy, gradually becoming locally cloudy. After midday, developing clouds are expected to bring isolated showers, mainly over the mountains and in the Karpasia area, with some inland areas also potentially getting a visit from the rain. Winds will start off variable and light at 3 Beaufort, gradually becoming mainly southwesterly to northwesterly, light to moderate at 3 to 4 Beaufort. The sea will generally be calm to slightly rough.
Temperatures will reach around 23°C inland, 24°C along the coast and 13°C in the highest mountain areas. So, if you're heading to the coast, enjoy the warmth. If you're heading into the mountains, perhaps reconsider that summer wardrobe.
Tonight, locally increased cloud cover will appear at times. Later in the night and during the early morning hours, patchy mist or fog may develop over inland areas and in the east. Winds will gradually become downslope and light at 3 Beaufort, while the sea will remain calm to slightly rough. Perfect conditions for anyone who enjoys driving while seeing absolutely nothing.
Looking ahead to Friday, Saturday and Sunday, periods of sunshine will alternate with intervals of increased cloud cover. In other words, the sun will be making appearances, but apparently doesn't want to commit to a full-time position.
Temperatures will gradually rise until Sunday, remaining slightly above the average climatic values for this time of year. At least the thermometer seems to know what it's doing.
