Nicosia: The Cyprus Department of Meteorology has released a forecast predicting varying wind conditions and sea states for the coastal regions around Cyprus. Covering an area extending 8 kilometers seawards, the forecast is valid from midday on July 25th to midday on July 26th, 2026. The forecast indicates that a seasonal low-pressure system is currently affecting the region, resulting in predominantly fine weather with intermittent cloud cover.

According to Cyprus News Agency, the atmospheric pressure at the time of the forecast was recorded at 1001 hPa. The sea surface temperature is noted to be 28°C, with visibility expected to remain good throughout the period. Despite the low-pressure system, no warnings have been issued for the area.

The forecast details varying wind speeds and sea conditions across the different coasts of Cyprus. On the west coast, winds are expected to vary from west to northwest, with Beaufort scales ranging from 3 to 5, leading to sea conditions from slight to moderate. The south coast will experience southwest winds reaching up to Beaufort scale 6 locally in the afternoon, with seas ranging from slight to moderate.
