Extreme weather; snow and storms hit Cyprus as Cyprus reaches “freezing point”

All roads to Troodos are closed on Monday morning because of ice, while there are problems on a number of other roads in hilly areas. 

Temperatures are below normal for the time of year. Scattered showers are expected today while a new low pressure system from tonight will bring more rain and snow.

The Greek Cypriot police said that all roads to Troodos  (Prodromos -Troodos, Platres-Troodos and Karvounas-Troodos) are closed to all vehicles, because of ice.

The Akrountas-Dieronas road is closed because of mudslides and rock falls.
