We will see snow from late Friday night in these areas and in big cities of western Macedonia (in central Macedonia there does not seem to be particularly intense phenomena other than some snowfall in the center of Halkidiki), while the latest forecasts do not predict snowfall in Thessaloniki.
Snow will fall in the lowland areas of eastern Macedonia and Thrace, as of course in parts of Thessaly, late Friday night at low altitudes. At dawn on Saturday in these areas of northern Greece the weather conditions will gradually improve and it will stop snowing, with the bad weather shifting from about the height of Thessaly and further south to the mainland, i.e. Thessaly, the central Sterea, Evia and areas of the eastern Peloponnese and the Sporades, in the mountainous and semi-mountainous areas initially and later in the afternoon and in lowland areas in the aforementioned areas.
