Greece seasonal weather and flood preparedness
Overview
Greek authorities are implementing measures to prepare for seasonal weather changes and potential natural disasters. The General Secretariat for Civil Protection has issued directives to regional and municipal authorities to mitigate flooding risks for the 2026-2027 winter. These instructions include cleaning watercourse beds, maintaining stormwater networks, and inspecting drainage systems, with a particular focus on areas where forest fires have destroyed natural vegetation.
Local authorities are also tasked with updating evacuation plans and mapping high-risk areas where road networks intersect with watercourses. In the Thessaly region, discussions have centered on autumn preparedness and the readiness of citizens and officials to face dangerous weather phenomena. Additionally, concerns have been raised regarding maritime safety during these seasonal transitions.
