Rains and storms are expected in a large part of the country on Monday, from the afternoon hours until the evening hours of Wednesday, September 11, according to the latest forecast data from meteo.gr/National Observatory of Athens.

The main reason for this change in weather is the change in atmospheric circulation over Europe as well as the position of the jet stream over the Mediterranean, which has contributed to the development of a barometric low over the area of Italy. The air current is a strong current of air at a height of about 10-11 kilometers from the surface of the Earth with movement basically from west to east and its movement determines the creation and movement of barometric systems. The east-southeast movement of the barometric low from the area of Italy towards the southern Balkans and our country today will result in a gradual change of weather from the west of the country with rain and storms.
Specifically, today from the afternoon and early evening hours, rain and storms are expected initially in parts of the Ionian islands, Epirus, western Sterea and western Peloponnese.

Rains and storms are expected to intensify in the west, where locally strong storms are likely to occur, gradually until the early hours of Tuesday, while local rains and storms are also expected to occur in parts of Thessaly and western Macedonia. In parts of the Ionian Sea, Epirus, western Sterea and western Peloponnese there is a small chance of localized hail.

On Tuesday, local rains and storms are expected in a large part of the country (with the exception of the southernmost island parts of the Aegean), with an emphasis on the northern country, where the phenomena will be longer and more intense.

According to the five-level categorization of a rainfall episode (Regional Precipitation Index), which is applied by the METEO unit of the National Observatory of Athens, the rainfall episode is classified as Category 3 (Significant).
