Good evening everyone,

I just thought I should report the snowfalls in Athens today:

only last a few hours, I guess).

Not more than 15 cm in the northern suburbs of Athens (drifting to
25cm) -less in other parts of the city- and not over a metre of new
snow in the surrounding mountains, I am told.

Have a nice day, everyone.

Yannis.

Sorry for disturbing yet again. In Crete, the main problem is snow
above ca. 400m amsl and the winds causing problems in the harbours.
Most of the Aegean isles are currently cut off from the mainland due
to the F9-10 winds (even Thessaloniki itself reported wind gusts up to
115 kph yesterday).

Thanks, cupra.

And a satellite animation showing how the very dry air coming from
eastern Europe is enriched in water vapour over the Aegean and, after
some kilometres, condensation finally occurs:

Still snowing in Northern Athens, as I can see:

All the best, everyone.

Sorry for taking advantage of everyone's permissiveness, but I keep
receiving nice photos. Yet again from Chani/Crete, this time by Kosmas
