In more detail, on Thursday, April 6, 2023, a new temporary weather change is expected from the west. Rain and sporadic storms will occur in most of the country. The phenomena that will be locally strong in the evening will be limited to Thrace, the Eastern Aegean and the Dodecanese. There is a possibility of hailstorms in the island’s main parts.
