Greece expects sunny weekend with isolated showers and winds up to 8 bft

A nationwide forecast for Saturday 20 June and Sunday 21 June 2026 calls for generally clear skies across Greece, with localized cloud cover and brief showers mainly in mountainous areas of the mainland. Temperatures will reach the low‑30s °C on the islands and in most low‑lying regions, with possible peaks of 33‑35 °C in the western interior and occasional readings up to 36 °C. Strong breezes are expected, especially over the Aegean Sea and Crete, where gusts may reach 8 bft. The combination of high heat and wind raises fire risk, particularly in Euboea, Boeotia, parts of Phthiotis, the north‑eastern Aegean, Crete, the north‑eastern Peloponnese and some Cycladic islands. Residents are advised to stay alert for rapid temperature changes, isolated thunderstorms and the heightened fire danger.
