Get ready for a day that feels like summer’s dress rehearsal! Sunshine will dominate, though clouds will drift in—especially in the west and south—bringing local showers to parts of the Ionian, Western and Central Greece, Epirus, and the Peloponnese. And yes, that hazy filter in the sky? Saharan dust is back in the air, giving the day a warm, golden cast and reminding us we’re not too far from Africa.
Temperature check: It’s another warm one, with highs flirting with the low 30s in some spots:
- Western Macedonia: 11–24°C
- Eastern Macedonia & Thrace: 14–29°C
- Ionian Islands: 13–28°C
- Epirus: 15–28°C
- Thessaly: 15–29°C
- Central Greece: 15–32°C
- Peloponnese: 13–28°C
- Aegean Islands: 16–29°C
- Crete: 14–32°C
Winds will flow from the south at 3–5 Beaufort, shifting gradually to easterlies in the southern regions. Expect mild gusts—enough to stir the dust but not ruffle your beach towel.
In Athens, expect scattered clouds becoming denser by midday and into the afternoon. Winds will blow from the northwest at 3–5 Beaufort, and the mercury will climb from 16 to a hot 31°C.
In Thessaloniki, the sky will wear a light veil of clouds throughout the day. Winds will turn from northwest to southeast at 2–4 Beaufort, and temperatures will range between 15 and 28°C.
