The weather during the October 28th long weekend will resemble advanced spring, with drought continuing into next week, according to meteorologists’ predictions.

This year’s “St. Demetrius’ summer” will be present again, with good weather and sunshine throughout the country, according to Klearchos Marousakis.

As the meteorologist from OPEN notes, the “northern weather” is affecting our country, with the northern wind passing over the sea and picking up more humidity, resulting in clouds in areas where the topography favors it.

The atmospheric circulation will not change, as this extensive anticyclone continues to cover a large part of Europe, resulting in mild weather conditions and northern winds in the Aegean near 6 Beaufort. These northern winds will remain at the same intensity until October 28th, while the weather is expected to feel like advanced spring, with temperatures reaching 23-25 degrees Celsius in many geographical areas. At least until the beginning of next week, no rain is expected, with drought continuing.

Σαν σήμερα στις 25 Οκτωβρίου 2009 είχαμε έντονες βροχές και καταιγίδες κυρίως στα κεντρικά και νότια και στην Κρήτη και σημειώθηκαν 177 χιλιοστά βροχής στο Τζερμιάδον Λασιθίου. Παράλληλα κατεγράφη υδροσίφωνας στον Σαρωνικό.
