Default Thundery Thessaloniki, dry Athens

Good morning everyone.

Thessaloniki had its exciting moments during the last evening, as
thunderstorms developed around the city and soon affected it. 80.3 mm at
Kalamaria (eastern Thessaloniki) in a couple of hours, more at adjacent
sites.

Shortly before that, relative humidity plummeted down to 7% (!) here in SE
Athens as anvils from distant Peloponnesian thunderstorms had joyfully
decided to inhibit overnight radiation cooling over the city right from its
start -and I'm still trying to understand why dew point readings dropped
down to -12C from the cosy +10...+13C levels it had been persisting in. DP
back to +9C now and life's back to normal..

Yannis, SE Athens
+21.6C, RH 46%, SLP 1015.5 hPa
