Weather: Cloudy with Local Showers – Winds Diminish, Temperature Rises

The weather in Greece is expected to start mostly clear but will become cloudy with local showers, particularly in the northwest.

Today in Greece, the weather is forecasted to begin with mostly clear skies across the country; however, clouds will quickly develop in the western regions. Local showers are expected to start in the northwestern part by midday and will gradually spread to other western areas, intensifying later in the night with possible sporadic thunderstorms. Winds will initially be northwesterly at speeds of 3 to 5 Beaufort, but will shift to southerly directions, potentially reaching up to 7 Beaufort in parts of the Ionian Sea late in the evening.

Temperature-wise, there will be a slight increase in maximum values, with northern regions reaching 14 to 15 degrees Celsius, while other areas might see temperatures of 16 to 17 degrees, and locally in the western and southern islands, temperatures may rise to 18 degrees Celsius. This change may also bring localized frost in the northwestern mainland early in the morning hours. The expected weather conditions reflect a typical transitional phase, indicating the end of winter and the anticipation of warmer spring days ahead.

The detailed weather forecast reveals that areas like Macedonia and Thrace will experience sporadic clouds, with a noted expectation for local rain in the western Macedonia region during the evening. The variable winds, transitioning from northwestern to southerly, will play a significant role in this weather shift, as the country prepares for changing seasonal conditions.
