The weather on Easter Sunday will allow most to enjoy Easter customs in the countryside, however some will not be so lucky
The weather will be better with progressive volatility receding in most of the country during Easter Sunday, with most being able to enjoy Easter customs in the countryside.
Nevertheless, some won’t be so lucky since based on the predictive data in several areas it will be cloudy and local rains are expected.
Specifically, in the central and southern Aegean, eastern Sterea and Evia there will be clouds with local rain. Soon the phenomena in most areas will stop and only in Crete they will continue until the evening hours. In the rest of the areas, few clouds, temporarily increased in places in the continental areas in the midday and afternoon hours, so sporadic rains are likely to occur in the mountains.
Winds to the west will be north northwest 4 to 6 Beaufort but will quickly weaken and become variable 3 to 4 Beaufort. In the east, winds will blow from north directions 4 to 6 and in the Aegean temporarily local 7 Beaufort.
THE temperature will rise mainly in the Ionian and the continental and will reach the Ionian, the continental and the Dodecanese 23 to 25 degrees and in the rest of the island country 20 to 22 degrees Celsius.
