The extreme weather with strong winds is sweeping across Greece.

The bad weather has caused problems in Epirus, where Kalamas and Acheron rivers are on the verge of overflowing. Authorities have opened the dam at Kalamas to deal with the situation and avoid severe flooding.

In Acheron, things are more difficult, especially in Gliki and Ammoudia, as the second instance overflowing is already starting, according to reports.

As epiruspost.gr writes, the Terovo junction of the Ionian Road was closed earlier due to intense floods in the area. Traffic has been banned at the entrance and exit, however, vehicles are moving normally in the Ionian highway as there is no problem from the severe weather phenomena.

The settlements around Acheron are also on alert, which, as the images show, are overflowing.
