Although it is mid-May, it seems that in the next few days the extremely hot gas masses of North Africa will cover much of Southeast Europe. There will be 2 warm waves (the first soft and the second extreme) and the temperature will be so sudden that the maximum temperatures in the country will be 13-14 ° C higher than the season average. .
First bearable heat wave: Monday through Wednesday
The first heat wave will not be as intense, however, maximum temperatures in the center and south of the country’s continent will approach 34-35. C. The areas where these maximum temperatures will occur will be mainly lowland areas vulnerable to heat from Thessaly, eastern Sterea, and eastern Peloponnese. On Wednesday, the western parts of the country will be mainly affected by 34 ° C in places.
Tuesday in northern Crete there will be very high temperatures
There will be a specific part of the territory, the northern coastal parts of Crete, where during the noon on Tuesday the mercury will escape even more. It will reach 36-37 ° C and most likely locally 38 ° C, making the conditions very summery.
Large concentrations of dust from Africa.
Due to winds from the south, weather conditions will favor the transport of dust from Africa. It appears that dust concentrations will be particularly high, causing relative turbidity in the atmosphere in most parts of the country. This climate cocktail is strange for vulnerable groups …
Second extreme heat wave: from Thursday onwards
The second heat wave will be even more intense and prolonged (it will last from 4 to 5 days according to the forecast data) and, in fact, could characterize it as extreme for the time we are in. It seems, according to the latest forecast data, that the gas masses that will enter our country will be even warmer, with the result that mercury will continue to rise.
Perhaps starting Thursday there will be record temperatures for the season.
The temperature will rise to such high levels starting next Thursday (and especially starting next Friday) that the average temperature will be 13-14 ° C higher than normal for the season.
A 38-39. C and possibly 40 ° C mercury
The temperature will rise from Thursday at prices that may even be a record for the season. It appears that mainly central and southern Greece will be affected, with mercury in these areas reaching 38-39 ° C in places and probably even 40 ° C. For example, the Thessalian plain, Kopaida in Boeotia, the lowlands of Phthiotis, the Attica zones and the eastern Peloponnese will present a serious bid for mercury to reach prices close to 38-39 ίσως C and perhaps even 40 ° C.
The only positive is that it will cool down a bit at night
Due to the fact that the cements in the cities have not yet been “watered” by radiation and heat, at night the situation will be tolerable because the mercury will manage to drop to tolerable levels.
