Thunderstorms, some locally strong, have been registered in several areas of Greece between Wednesday and Friday, accompanied in some cases by hail and high winds.
The weather has been expected to cause serious problems to summer fruit productions (apricots, cherries, etc.), and the rainfall could also create favourable conditions for the spread of pests and insects.
On Wednesday (17/6/2015) storms were forecast to take place in Macedonia, Thrace and Epirus, moving later to Thessaly. The phenomena were accompanied locally by hail and high winds.
On Thursday (18/6/2015), showers and thunderstorms, some locally strong, were expected in the continental regions of the country, the Ionian Sea and central and northern Aegean.
Today, Friday (19.06.2015) the unsettled weather will continue with showers and thunderstorms, mainly in Thrace, Macedonia, Thessaly, the Sporades and Evia, as well as the islands of the northern and eastern Aegean, although these should gradually fade in the evening.
