Today, Greece is experiencing unsettled weather conditions characterized by widespread rain and storms, with the National Meteorological Service forecasting localised snowfall over the northern mountainous regions. Despite these conditions, temperatures are expected to remain relatively stable across the country.
The Ionian Sea, along with the western and northern mainland, the northeastern Aegean, and eventually the Dodecanese, will see increased cloud cover, leading to local showers and sporadic storms. In contrast, the remaining regions of Greece will experience intervals of increased cloudiness, accompanied by occasional, light rain.
Snowfall is anticipated on the elevated terrain of Epirus and Macedonia, starting from altitudes above 1,600 meters. Morning hours will likely bring regions of reduced visibility on the mainland, with some areas potentially experiencing fog formation.
