An episode of Saharan dust transport towards our country which is already underway today is expected to show a peak tomorrow Tuesday (23/4).
According to the forecast data of meteo.gr/Athens National Observatory, on Tuesday, apart from the very high dust concentrations that will limit visibility, mud showers are expected to occur mainly in the north and west of the country. On Wednesday (24/4), the shift of winds to westerly will result in the restriction of dust in the Dodecanese and its progressive removal towards the east.
The following forecast maps show:
– In red shades the dust concentration in the atmosphere during the afternoon and evening hours of Tuesday 23/04.
– In yellow the areas where muddy rain will occur during the same periods.
