I'm waiting, though the weekend is almost over now. OK, it was a forecast not a prediction! :lol:

I think that on this occasion the weather forecast, at least in the Coastal area from Coral Bay thru Chloraka to Paphos, was wrong.Not a drop of rain.A few black clouds were visible yesterday afternoon, but otherwise it’s been sunny and warm!

Actually, thinking about it, we briefly visited Corallia Bay on saturday afternoon. I noted then that it had obviously rained there recently as the sand had lots of rain pit marks.

No rain today (Sun) in Anarita but had a really heavy shower yesterday afternoon. I went for a walk down at the harbour and could see storm clouds gathering over the hills. Rosemary stayed at home and thought I would be getting soaked. On the way back, around 5:30pm the roads were wet from the Ayia Vivara Industrial area to Anarita. Went down to Londis Perasma Tavern last night at Timi and they had no rain there and people were sitting outside. Must have been a lot of rain as the pool is nicely filled.

There is even water in the River Ezousa on the airport road which we have never seen at this time of year. However, there was still water there at the beginning of July.

Weather conditions can be so isolated here at times. So Peyia, just a stones throw from Kissonerga got very different conditions to me!

Over Paphos nothing, so maybe find a more accurate weather forecast web page?

Why? The prediction was showers and isolated thunderstorms. That is exactly what happened.

Well we had blue on blue for the last few days, today looks the same, clear and pleasant, no idea why we had no rain or thunder, as they say the sun shines on the righteous. ;)
