Cyprus enjoys an
intense Mediterranean climate of hot dry summers starting in mid-May
and lasting until mid-September and rainy, quite mild winters from November
to mid-March. Spring and autumn are effectively short intervals in between,
characterised by smooth weather. With almost year-round clear skies
and sunshine, daylight length ranges from 9.8 hours in December to 14.5
hours in June.
Average Temperatures
In broad lines, Cyprus's climate is characterised by hot summers and
mild winters. There is a significant seasonal difference between mid-summer
and mid-winter temperatures that ranges from 18° C inland to about
14° C on the coast. The difference in daily maximum and night minimum
temperatures is also quite significant. In winter they range from 8°
to 10° C on the lowlands and 5°to 6° C on the mountains
and in summer from 16° C on the central plain and 9°to 12°
C elsewhere.
Daily temperatures during the hottest months of July and August,range
between 29° C on the central plain and 22° C on the Troodos
Mountains . The average maximum temperatures for these two months range
between 36° C and 27° C. In January, the coolest month, the
indicative daily temperature is 10° C on the central plain and 3°
C on the higher parts of the Troodos Mountains while the average minimum
temperatures are 5° C and 0° C.
Sea Temperatures
The temperature in the open sea hovers above 22° C from June to
November, climbing to 27° C in August. Even during the three coolest
months of January to March, average sea temperature are an acceptable
16° or 17° C. Near the coast, the temperature of water three
or four metres deep is similar to that of the open sea, ranging from
15° to 17°C in February and from 23° to 28° C in August.
There are no significant daily fluctuations in sea water temperatures,
except in very shallow waters less than one metre deep.
Air Humidity
During the days in winter and at night throughout the year, humidity
ranges from average to slightly low (65% - 95%). During summer it is
very low near midday, ranging from 15% to 30% on the central plain.
Fog is rare and typically occurs in early morning. Visibility is normally
very good or excellent. There is an exception over a few days in spring
when the atmosphere is very hazy due to dust from the Arabian and African
deserts.
Sunshine
Cyprus enjoys a very sunny climate compared with most countries with
11.5 hours of bright sunshine per day over the six summer months. Even
during the months of December and January, there is 5.5 hours of sunshine.
Winds
Winds over the island are relatively variable in direction and strength
depending on the elevation of the land and local temperatures.
Clothing During Different Seasons
Clothing requirements vary, depending on the length and the period of
your visit. During April and May, days are pleasantly warm, but temperatures
may drop at night. Spring and summer apparel and long sleeved tops or
light jackets for the evenings are recommended. From June to the end
of August, very light summer clothing is a must. September to October
see quite a few warm days andcool evenings. Light apparel for the day
and long sleeves for the evenings in October is recommended. November
has pleasantly warm days that can be enjoyed in jumpers and light jackets.
December and January will be the only winter you will get, even though
it feels more like autumn for most visitors. It may rain occasionally,
yet the promise of glorious sunshine is still there. Winter clothing
is necessary, but not heavy coats. The possibility of fairly warm days
is always there during February, as is the occasional rainfall. Milddaytime
temperatures are the harbingers of spring but it can get quite cold
inthe evenings and winter apparel will beneeded. Winter wear will also
be appropriate during March with its moderate but sometimes unpredictable
weather inviting you to enjoy Cyprus nature at its best.
