The weather scene changes, since the sunshine of the previous days will give way to cloudy weather, local rains, thunderstorms and snowfall. Tomorrow dust is expected in the atmosphere, while the area will gradually be affected by low pressure.
For his part, the director of the Department of Meteorology, Kleanthis Nikolaidis, noted that this is a light isolated rain mainly from stratomorphic clouds. The day will initially be sunny, but from noon onwards it will become cloudy, with medium and high clouds, which in the afternoon may give isolated light rain, mainly in the mountains. The temperature will be well above normal levels for the season.
Tomorrow the weather will be mostly cloudy with isolated rains, but it is not excluded that there will be an isolated thunderstorm mainly in the northwest. Diluted dust may hover in the atmosphere. On Saturday, the weather will be temporarily partly cloudy with isolated rains. Clouds and local rains are also expected during Sunday, while snow or sleet is likely to fall in the higher mountains.
The temperature is expected to gradually drop by Sunday, to hover near or slightly above the average climatic values for the season.
