Even more of the same tomorrow too! :)

Let's hope it is also raining up in the mountains - though we did have some hailstones down here today and there is snow forecast for this week, so fingers crossed! :) :)

HEAVY RAIN CAUSED DISRUPTION ON THE ROADS AND DAMAGE TO CITRUS ORCHARDS

Heavy rains that have occurred in the Northern Cyprus .
In the last two days have been welcomed by all, as our country is facing drought.
The rain is seen as a sign of relief…


But, it caused disruption on the roads and damage to citrus orchards.
Ferry Services between Turkey and the TRNC have been cancelled for a day due to bad weather conditions.

The Girne Ports(Kyrenia) Authority announced that strong gale winds creating waves up to 2-3 meters high as well as poor visibility have caused services between Girne and Tasucu to be cancelled.

The ferry services are not expected to be resumed until Thursday.
Ferry services from Gazimagusa are continuing uninterrupted.

In five finger mountains 38.5 kg per meter square ,
East Mesaria :35.2
Middle Mesaria:34.1
West Mesaria:26.2
Karpasia region :115.6 kg rain fall down .

In old days we used to be very happy when we were getting snow in our area .....Now we are getting very happy if its drops few rain ......

what will be future of the Cyprus ? are we going towards the desert times ....
