Wet and wintry weather expected on Christmas Day, Boxing Day
Wintry weather is expected to continue in Greece on Christmas Day and and in the days afterwards, bringing heavy localised rain showers, as well as thunderstorms at sea and in coastal areas accompanied by gale-force northeasterly winds.
Snow is forecast at higher altitudes, especially in central and northern parts of Greece.
On Christmas Day, strong rain is expected, particularly in the Sporades islands, central and north Evia and the Dodecanese islands. This will spread to southern sections of the eastern Aegean by midday and to east Thessaly, eastern Central Greece, south Evia and the west Cyclades island in the afternoon.
On December 26, strong rain is again forecast in the above areas, as well as Attica and the eastern Peloponnese.
The weather will begin to improve on Friday.
