There was quite a bit of dew this morning, with the weather setting being noticeably different from previous days.
The gusts have already strengthened, particularly towards the central Aegean, reaching 8 Beaufort. According to Klearchos Marousakis‘ forecast, gusts are also being observed in Parnitha.
The temperature has dropped noticeably this morning: Nefrokopi woke up at 8°C, Florina at 10°C, and the Parnitha area at 12°C.
Farfini was in Pannonia, while Pannonia was in Farnonia—on the opposite side of the river.
According to Mr. Marousakis, the change in the northern weather is due to a large high-pressure system covering parts of Old Epirus.
Colydas: Winds up to 8 Beaufort in the Aegean Sea, temperature dropping, and partly cloudy skies.
Gusty winds and a significant drop in temperatures are shaping the weather across the country in the coming hours. By early Thursday morning, the change is already noticeable in several regions, as sunshine and high temperatures give way to cooler and cloudier conditions.
Locally, winds are expected to reach 7 to 8 Beaufort in the Aegean Sea, with temperatures dropping and partly cloudy conditions in the east.
According to Meteo forecast data, the development of a high-pressure field over the Balkans will significantly strengthen northerly winds, mainly over the Aegean and eastern mainland.
Winds today and tomorrow will blow at 6–7 Beaufort, and locally up to 8 Beaufort. Wind gusts may exceed 70–80 km/h in some areas.
The strong northerly winds increase the risk of wildfires in parts of Attica, Boeotia, Central and Southern Evia, Eastern Argolida, Laconia, the Aegean islands, and southern Crete.
