Areas That Received the Most Rainfall in Recent Days

During the three-day period of January 9-11, 2026, Cyprus experienced significant rainfall, with strong spatial variation. The highest rainfall amounts were recorded in the southwest and mountainous areas, with values reaching or exceeding 50 millimeters, locally up to 75 millimeters. In the central and southern regions, rainfall was moderate (10-25 millimeters), while in the east and northeast it was noticeably lower, with amounts below 5 millimeters. The data is preliminary and based on measurements from meteorological stations, including areas outside government control, which limits quality control. This rainfall is considered important for replenishing water reserves, especially in dams.
