According to Wunderground 10 day forecast, today will be partly cloudy. The bad weather and storms begin tomorrow. https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/cy/paphos Well, you was lucky then, I had 2 hours power cut and the thunder and lightning was going on for hours in my area which is not that far ...

According to the LIVE Radar from the German site "Wetteronline" the storm front with a lot of lightning, moving south-west, is at 11.30AM already on the border of Paphos district... so we will see what happens...

We could see the first heavy rain today in Paphos district, which is not unusual for the third week of October. Here Google translation of the article: "An orange storm alert was issued by the Meteorological Service from 12 noon to six in the afternoon. According to the warning, isolated heavy thund...

That's a lot of emissions for 85M eu would be interesting to know what technology the Elect authority's are using on the Gas Turbines to reduce emissions. EAC is using mainly heavy fuel driven generators which explains the high penalty... but they are since years planning to erect photovoltaic plan...

What a pity turning productive farmland into a mainly concrete covered tourist site. If the theme park proves popular it certainly seems likely to spoil both the peacefulness and the natural beauty of this area. Why won’t the planners realise that not all tourists who choose to take their holiday h...

So, this is the area of the planned theme park. I personally prefer this future business more than the existing messy looking sheep farms, green houses or abandoned cars (not to talk about the dumped rubbish everywhere) which one can recognize on this screen shot from Bing. https://up.picr.de/370454...

Great idea and another reason to hurry up with the motorway towards Polis. It will change the whole area to awake from a deep slumber it is since >30 years I can remember. Obviously the ugly looking new hotel nearby knew already about it... Max what is the name of that hotel? As far as I know, the ...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I find the new Hotel on the skyline very attractive and a vast improvement on the existing network? of Hotels. The hotel is not even opened, and among other things the ugly looking wooden construction is one of the reasons that there is no permit issued yet...a...

Spot-on Louise. It is Kannaviou and the dam with the same name just in the background..

After Thomas Cook recently went bust, Condor Airlines announced new connections to Paphos for 2020, thanks to a bridge loan of 300 m from the German Government... here the article from Paphos Press and a good Google translation... https://pafospress.com/%ce%ba%ce%b1%ce%bb%cf%89%cf%83%ce%bf%cf%81%ce%...

After last weeks difficult one, this time it is much easier: what is the name of the village in that valley?

I got the message... so no more photos from clouds in the near future ..

Yesterday I thought I will share with you some photos from the early morning clouds which one could see while the sun was rising. When I was uploading my pics I realized that Dominic published a short video on Facebook showing Paphos Clouds...and I thought it would be a bit much on the same day to s...

So it was too difficult this time... apology. The village in question is Asproyia, the first village when you drive down from Panagia towards Kannaviou and you can see the dam on the right hand side...

All night it was hot like July with 26c, very low humidity and when I had a look outside it was like that with weird cloud formations.. https://up.picr.de/36996891ie.jpg while in the other direction the nearly full moon was looking at me https://up.picr.de/36996894ch.jpg well sunrise looks quite int...

Statos Fotios is not far away, but is still the wrong village...

Max

Another hint: there is next to the mosque a small place for a rest right on the main road with a nice view to a large dam...

You could use the timer too.

Thank you for the tip. Reading the instructions again I found out that the camera got a drive mode button with 2 or 10 seconds delay...
This after using the camera 1 year now I have still plenty to read from 182 pages in the "help guide"...
