Snow is expected to fall on the Troodos mountains on Tuesday, with lower ground set to see rain in parts and the odd storm.

Skies will be cloudy across most of the island, with temperatures set to rise to a high of 19 degrees Celsius inland and eight degrees Celsius in the mountains.

Overnight, the skies will remain cloudy, with light fog possible in some parts.

Temperatures will drop to six degrees Celsius inland, 10 degrees Celsius on the coast, and two degrees Celsius in the mountains, where frost is likely to form.

The weather will remain largely unchanged on Wednesday, with storms possible in the eastern half of the island in the afternoon, with colder weather set to arrive on Thursday.

This colder weather will bring with it snow in the mountains, which may even spread to lower ground.

Temperatures are set to drop significantly by Friday.
