Towards dawn on Thursday, occasional phenomena may affect Central and Northern Macedonia, even near the border with Skopje. From Thursday the weather will stabilise again, with temperatures dropping slightly on the mainland to 30-31°C. Northerly winds in the Aegean remain at 6 Beaufort, bringing coolness.

The meteorologist of Open notes that “Wednesday to Friday will see again unstable weather conditions with showers and storms, with winds returning again with fluctuations in their intensity and with emphasis on areas facing the Aegean Sea, while temperatures will be close to 34° to 36° Celsius for most areas.”
