Thessaloniki http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/LGTS.html 0°C;
snow; brisk NNW wind

Alexandroupoli http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/LGAL.html 0°C;
heavy snow; strong NNE wind

Furthermore, Ioannina had 8 consecutive days of falling and lying snow.
Alexandroupolis (and the prefecture of Evros in general) should see snow on
a daily basis until Saturday to say the least.

It is beginning to look as if Greece is going to have a snowier winter
than
either the UK or the Low Countries for the 3rd year in a row.

I'm really not too sure about that but I think I haven't been posting in
here until some 2.5 years ago, that would explain it:-)

Check conditions in the very centre of Thessaloniki from this webcam:

and Trikala, in western Thessaly, from he
http://www.3kala.gr/live/webcam2.asp

(snow lying in both cities right now).

This webcam is from the NW suburbs of Athens and has a view to Mt Parnitha:
http://www.meteocam.gr/parnitha/ (should be interesting as of the morning)
