Temperatures All Over Greece To Take Nosedive Monday Night!

It looks like winter has really set in across Greece and from what has been announced temperatures are expected to take a sharp nosedive on Monday night, bringing a cold snap that will persist throught the whole week. The bitter cold is expected to be especially felt on Tuesday morning and there are rumors that we also might see the first snow fall of the season in Athens by Thursday.

The Hellenic National Meteorological Service said that during the course of Monday night, Athens will begin to experience moderate northeρly winds of up to 5 Beaufort (in the Aegean up to 7 Beaufort), but they will strengthen as the days proceed. Temperatures at first will range from 10-14 degrees Celsius during the day but are then expected to drop sharply overnight to around 4 Celsius (and even to well below 0 in some parts of northern Athens).

In other areas of the country, it is going to be worse! The bitter cold is going to freeze up the Northern city of Thessaloniki, and residents there will see the first frost of the season on Tuesday morning. In the rural part of Macedonia and Thrace it is expected that residents will feel below zero temperatures all day and all night.

Brrrrr.... Stay warm Greek frappers!
