Crete is also at the mercy of Ianos when the Mediterranean cyclone hit the island, feeling the first problems on the island.
From early to noon, the rains started from the west and specifically from Chania, while on Saturday afternoon storms and lightning appeared in Heraklion prefecture.
The authorities are already closing all Irish bridges, starting with the Katsamba River, which has already overflowed and is dangerous to cross.
At the same time, according to the cretapost.gr website, there are testimonies that speak of problems that have occurred in the center of Heraklion and specifically in health stores that have been flooded.
According to the National Observatory, bad weather is expected to move south on Saturday and then southeast, and its effects will gradually be limited to the southern part of the country.
On Sunday, the rains and storms of “Ianos” will remain in Crete, while in the rest of the country there will be a better climate with local clouds, which will be more dense in the south.

“An effort is being made that is difficult but that seems to be taking shape in the next few hours. We stay alert, we stay alert, we stay alert. “Civil protection and all the bodies involved know how to fight and we are still present,” stressed Mr. Hardalias.
