Yellow alert as storm front moves in on Cyprus :rain

Please be careful if you are out and about

THE Paphos district on Thursday bore the brunt of rainstorms and strong winds, at times reaching gale force 8, as authorities issued a yellow alert.
The met office said more rains and storms were expected today. In total 28 areas across the island – mostly in Paphos and Limassol – were at some point left without electricity on Thursday. By the evening, power had been restored to all but five communities.
Heavy snowfall and sleet in the Troodos mountains led authorities to restrict access on some roads to four-wheel-drive vehicles and cars equipped with anti-skid chains.
Torrential rain in Paphos caused the Toxeftras river to overflow, temporarily closing the road on the entrance to Akamas from Ayios Georgios. Rains also caused water accumulation and low visibility on the Limassol to Paphos motorway in the Erimi, Ypsonas and Pissouri areas.
By nightfall, temperatures dropped to 6C inland, 9C on the coast and 2C in the mountains. Today is expected to see more strong winds but higher temperatures clocking in around 12C inland, 14C on the coast and 4C in the mountains.

Red and yellow weather warnings already issued for next week - more seriously strong winds are forecast so don't go repairing your fences and replacing missing roof tiles just yet!
