Greece is currently facing a new wave of severe weather that is affecting the country from the west, causing heavy rains, thunderstorms, strong winds, and hail. According to meteorologist Giannis Kallianos, a 'broken squall line' measuring approximately 300 kilometers in length has formed over the western part of Greece. This weather phenomenon is expected to continue moving eastward, gradually impacting more regions, possibly reaching the Aegean Sea.

In his recent statement, Kallianos noted that one end of the squall line is situated in the northern geographic areas of Epirus while the other extends southward near Zakynthos. The formation of such a storm line depends heavily on the balance between wind shear, available instability, and the dynamics of the cold air mass. Kallianos indicated that the current atmospheric conditions are conducive to the development of this severe weather, leading to the expected thunderstorms and adverse weather conditions across the country.

As such warnings are issued, people in the affected areas are advised to prepare for possible severe weather events, as these conditions could lead to damaging impacts. The local authorities are likely to monitor the situation and provide further updates on how this weather system progresses, particularly as it approaches densely populated regions like Attica, known for its vulnerability to extreme weather incidents.
