The storm’s center was west of Cyprus. It moved slowly to the east. Because of this, the heavy rain lasted a long time. A yellow weather warning was active all day. Rain and thunderstorms were expected until Thursday. The weather might get better on Friday.

The town of Polis Chrysochous had the worst flooding. Water covered streets, houses, and basements. Some roads to nearby villages had landslides. The mayor said this was a very unusual situation. He asked people to be very careful and not travel if they didn't need to.

The storm also affected important roads. The main road between Nicosia and Limassol had floods. This made it hard to see and dangerous to drive. The Fire Service got many calls for help. Many cars and houses were flooded in the Polis area. Special teams were sent to Paphos to help more. Drivers were told to be careful and use their lights. Strong winds were also expected near the coast. This long storm means emergency services must stay alert. They are dealing with the problems and new issues.
