Orange Weather Warning Issued for High Temperatures

Orange Weather Warning was officially issued by Meteorological officials for extreme high temperatures across Cyprus, with inland areas expected to reach 43°C (109°F) this weekend. The alert, active from Friday to Sunday, warns of “dangerous thermal conditions” particularly between 11am-4pm.

Authorities advise residents to avoid sun exposure, stay hydrated, and check on vulnerable individuals. Beaches are expected to be crowded as locals seek relief. The heatwave results from a high-pressure system bringing hot air from North Africa.

This marks Cyprus’ third orange-level heat alert this summer. Emergency services are on standby for potential heat-related incidents. Tourists are urged to follow UV protection measures while the extreme conditions persist.
