Reservoirs still 77% full despite protracted summer
October 28, 2020
While temperatures in recent days have been 6 to 10C higher than usual for the time of the year, reaching 36C in Nicosia both on Monday and Tuesday, this and a lack of rainfall have not yet affected water levels in the reservoirs.
The hot weather will abate somewhat over the next few days, but will remain well above average, with highs of more than 30C in some areas.
Rain is also unlikely to fall this week, at least in Nicosia, where the possibility of precipitation has been forecast for November 2 when, according to online site climate-data.org, which posts climate data for cities worldwide, 1 millimetre of rain may fall in the form of scattered showers in the capital.
