Good evening everyone,

I'm back from 3 days off at Elati, where the annual gathering of the
"Hellasweather" yahoo group (pretty much the greek equivalent of this
newsgroup) took place. Elati is in the heart of the Pindus mountain range
that runs the country from the albanian/FYROM border to the Peloponnese,
at 950 m amsl.

Heavy snow on Sunday, covering the older ices:

Lovely pics, Yannis. The church looks as though it's
been bricked up ???

Have a look at the various weekend threads and
you'll find that some parts of the UK have done
almost as well as you over recent days !!

March, of course, brought some of Greece's
heaviest snowfalls ever, didn't it? 1987 or 1988,
was it?
