Have a look at the various weekend threads and
you'll find that some parts of the UK have done
almost as well as you over recent days !!

Yes, I'm seeing it! Lovely to see that much of Europe is experiencing wintry
weather at the same time, even though Athens hasn't felt much of winter
during the last days, the anticyclone's simply too far away. It's been
experiencing rain and average temperatures.

March, of course, brought some of Greece's
heaviest snowfalls ever, didn't it? 1987 or 1988,
was it?

Indeed, it was the unforgettable March 1987 with 15 consecutive days with
snow both falling and lying in Athens. The year that brought copious amounts
of snowfalls in Athens even with southwesterlies. It was then that even the
Ionian coasts were covered with snow. Arta, in the west, hasn't seen a foot
of snow ever since. More recently, March 2003 has brought lying snow to
downtown Athens.

Parts of Macedonia copped a bucketful according to the weatherview last
night.

Something like a months worth in a day about 1 1/2 inches.

Have you heard the names of the sites? It was raining at low altitudes last
night but I don't think that it was so rainy (?)
