The weather conditions are expected to deteriorate in the coming hours, as the Hellenic National Meteorological Service (EMY) has issued an emergency bulletin for gale-force winds in the Aegean Sea. The winds, which will gradually intensify starting from Sunday evening and particularly on Monday, are expected to be a result of a shift in atmospheric circulation over Southeastern Europe, with high pressure rapidly building over the Balkans.

According to the latest forecasts from the National Observatory of Athens/meteo.gr, strong north and northeast winds are expected to dominate the Aegean Sea on Monday, reaching intensities of up to 6-7 Beaufort, with gusts locally reaching 8 Beaufort. In the Ionian Sea, easterly to northeast winds will also strengthen, with intensities up to 4-5 Beaufort, and locally 6 Beaufort.

The EMY has issued a Yellow Warning for Eastern Central Greece and Evia, urging caution due to the potential danger from flying debris. This can pose a risk for outdoor activities and could disrupt various activities in the affected areas.

Key Points to Remember

  • Gale-force winds up to 8 Beaufort in certain areas of the Aegean

  • Potential hazards from flying objects, especially in outdoor spaces

  • Possible local disruptions to outdoor activities due to strong winds
