greece weather

Greece continues to experience harsh winter conditions, with very low temperatures expected to persist through mid-February. 

For most of Greece, this weekend looks to bring clear skies.

Greeks will enjoy a sunny and clear sky on Sunday, January 19, though scattered clouds are expected to appear in the west during the afternoon

Snowfall reached as far south as the mountain peaks surrounding the greater Athens-Piraeus region on Monday, as well as other mountainous regions in the southern half of the country. Traffic leading up to Mt. Parnitha was halted during the day. Meanwhile, in the northern half of the country, traffic restrictions were imposed for trucks and […]

Heavy snowfall has already begun in Florina, in northern Greece, with snow exceeding five centimeters in some areas, although no significant problems have been reported so far.

The low front was expected to also significantly decrease temperatures around the country

Residents of the broader Athens area were faced with reduced visibility levels and drivers on the roads were able to see only at shorter distances.

The weather will be pleasant on the Epiphany holiday in Greece, with temperatures reaching up to 18°C in some areas.

The celebration of the Feast of the Epiphany is expected to come with mostly clear and mild weather across Greece. 

In Attica, the day will feature mostly clear skies and sunshine. Temperatures will range between 7–17°C, with light southwesterly winds of 3–4 Beaufort in coastal areas.

In Attica, sunny skies with occasional thin clouds are expected. Temperatures will range from 8–17°C, with light southwesterly winds at 2–4 Beaufort.

Cold front "Elena" is gradually subsiding, bringing clear skies to Athens by this afternoon. Access to Parnitha is now only possible via the cable car, while traffic on the Pendeli – Nea Makri ring road remains partially blocked.

Much of the inclement weather is also forecast for the islands in the Aegean and Crete

Holiday travelers to Arachova, Greece's "Mykonos of the Mountains," faced hours-long traffic jams on Christmas. Pinning the blame on stalled EVs oversimplifies the issue.

Intense rainfall from storm Elena in Greece's Attica region caused flooding, sewerage overflows, road closures, and renewed finger-pointing over the region's inability to manage heavy downpours.

Snowfalls are expected in several areas of Thrace, Macedonia, and Epirus, as the severe weather system "Elena" continues to bring strong winds, snow, and frost.

This will bring snowfall to the eastern parts of the country, with dense snow predicted across the mountains of Attica.

A low-pressure storm, called 'Elena' will hover over Greece on Christmas Eve and Christmas, bringing much needed rain.

Sunday’s, December 22, clear skies and mild weather are expected to shift to more "Christmas-like" weather on Monday with rain, thunderstorms, and snow predicted

In Attica, sunny weather will dominate, with only a few scattered clouds. Temperatures will range from 9–18°C, and light northern winds at 2–3 Beaufort will prevail over the surrounding sea areas.
