Over the last few years, we seem to be bombarded by weather warnings. So what does it actually mean when we are alerted to a Yellow Warning?
In short, it indicates potentially hazardous weather conditions that require caution.
These warnings are issued by the Cyprus meteorology department when weather conditions are expected to be severe enough to cause disruptions but are not extreme.
The purpose of a yellow weather warning is to alert the public to the possibility of adverse weather and to encourage them to take necessary precautions.
For example, a yellow weather warning might be issued for heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, strong winds, or extreme temperatures.
During such warnings, people are advised to stay informed about the weather conditions, avoid unnecessary travel, and secure any loose objects that could be blown away or damaged by the weather.
