And, most places in Athens exceeded their climatic rainfall averages for
November in two rain shower events. The constant c-c and c-g lightning show
ended after 18 hours. 56.1 mm of rain at this site, 81.2 mm at Helioupolis.
Two graphs for today's thunderstorms at this site:

Yes, LGAV is the international airport (El. Venizelos International Airport,
at Spata). LGAT (WMO ID: 16716, at the Ellinikon area) used to be the
international airport until March 2001. I can't find the WMO ID of LGAV
right now, as the HNMS pages seem to be temporarily unavailable. Do you need
it? Shall I try again later on?
All Athens data that appear on weatheronline are for the 16716 station,
where the HNMS establishments are situated.
