Apparently wind speed recorded yesterday at 118 kilometres per hour, as in 73.5 mph in old money. Certainly people reported having difficulty standing on the beach. We were content to observe the whitecaps from afar. Also reports of boats sinking in Girne harbour, which is scarcely surprising. 

Blowing today, but nothing like gale force. Temperature much lower than yesterday though, presumably thanks to the steady north winds coming from Türkiye. High today a pretty unusual 13.The Cyprus Mail claims temperatures will be unseasonably low until December 20. Am choosing to believe other sources that show steady recovery reaching twentyish by the weekend.
