Warm and mostly clear weather persisted through Saturday as temperatures
reached 37C in a few isolated locations within the agglomeration of
Athens,
like the N. Philadelphia station. Not warmer than 30-32C in the afternoon
for coastal areas of Attica, while Friday night was spent out in the
comfortable low-mid 20s. Inland low lying areas of central continental
Greece were quite warm once again, with temperatures reaching 36.4C at
both
Lamia and Larisa.

during the time concerned?Is the course or part of it much above sea level?
