Default Locally very hot in Greece

There is a good sea breeze at Iraklio today and I notice the
dew points are high (22°C). Most places in Greece seem a little
cooler than yesterday. You're better off in The Netherlands, Yannis,
though maybe not just at the moment.

It doesn't really make me happy to be missing all this, especially
because tomorrow could be a new record day (like today was, when
Larisa's brand new Saturday record broke again at 44C).
Today was, indeed, forecast to be a bit cooler in most areas. Athens
hasn't made it over 38C. Tomorrow, however... It's the first time I
remember a high resolution model forecast 44C in Athens -keep in mind
the model sees the Athens basin as grass, not a city... Some summer
records could well be in danger.
