According to Dotoris Kolitas, Tuesday, April 22, the phone type indicated windy and high temperatures.

These are strong low winds. “We have repeatedly seen differences of comparable or greater 16 °C between north-western Greece and southern island regions, especially in cases of strong southerly downwinds. Of course we do not mean “unprecedented”, e.g. today's 28 °C in Heraklion and 11 in the north-west. First 12 °C,” says Mr. Golitas.

North vs. South – temperature contrasts

We have repeatedly seen similar differences, or more than 16°C, between northwestern Greece and the southern island regions, especially during periods of strong downslope southerly winds. Of course we are not referring to something “unprecedented”, e.g. 28 °C in Heraklion today and 11 to 12 °C in the northwest.

Tomorrow Tuesday we may get even higher prices (30s 🌡️), but they won't be too high, according to the press. These values ​​will be mainly confined to Crete or locally reinforced downwinds of the phone type will again play an important role.
