Greece will experience mostly clear and pleasant weather Thursday, ideal for travel and outdoor plans across much of the country. Cloud cover will appear at intervals in several eastern and southern regions, while only Crete—and perhaps Evia—will see brief, isolated showers. Visibility may be locally reduced across mainland areas early in the morning and again late in the day due to patchy fog.

Chalkidiki, eastern Central Greece, the Peloponnese, Evia, Crete, and parts of the Aegean will experience periods of cloudiness, but rainfall will remain limited and short-lived. Elsewhere, travelers can expect sunshine with just occasional clouds.
