Mountainous and semi-mountainous regions of Cyprus have been covered in snow, creating a striking winter landscape. The temperature is expected to drop to minus 3 degrees Celsius in the highest mountains, with the possibility of frost in other areas. Snow depth at Troodos ski resort currently reaches 30-31 centimeters. Despite the cold picture, a temperature increase is expected until Friday, with sunshine and temperatures around 14-16 degrees Celsius inland and 3 degrees in the mountains. After Saturday, a new temperature drop and snowfall in the mountains are expected.
