There is a danger of severe flooding and property damage in parts of Greece

A tropical cyclone will pass through southern Greece in the next few days. So far, the low pressure area is under development in the Ionian Sea between the island of Sicily and the Peloponnese.

The cyclone is expected to reach maturity at the end of this working week with winds exceeding 150 kilometers per hour and torrential rains, which in 48 hours will exceed 180 liters per square meter.

As of Thursday, the Ionian Islands (Corfu, Lefkada, Kefalonia and Zakynthos) have a red code for dangerously high winds and a yellow code for rain and thunder. If the worst possible scenarios materialize, the climate in southern Greece will be devastating: there is the danger of severe flooding and material damage from powerful storms.

This type of cyclone in the Mediterranean is called “medicine”, which comes from the English word for hurricane – hurricane. They cannot reach the parameters of devastating hurricanes, but they create a dangerous climate in the countries of southern Europe.

Bulgaria is on the periphery of the cyclone. At the end of the week we will feel stronger wind in some regions of southern Bulgaria and light autumn rainfall in isolated places.
