Rainy Sunday, instability across a large part of the country – The weather along the Marathon route

Temperatures will not exceed 24 degrees, while in the north they will be somewhat lower

Newsroom November 9 09:31

Instability will persist on Sunday as well, bringing rain and thunderstorms to a large part of the country. The day is expected to be rainy with local thunderstorms mainly in the western part of the country and local cloudiness and rain in the rest. In the early hours of Sunday, after 04:00, we had torrential rain in Ilia and heavy rain in Zakynthos. We had rainfall in almost all of Central Greece and Thessaly, in Epirus and Macedonia — in places even strong — but also in eastern Attica.

On Sunday the temperature will not exceed 24 degrees, while in the north it will be somewhat lower. The weather pattern will not change significantly on Monday and only from Tuesday will conditions improve.

What weather the Marathon will have

According to meteo.gr in its forecast, the 42nd Athens Authentic Marathon will take place with plenty of cloud cover and increased probability of light rain at times. High relative humidity values are expected along most of the route, but will decrease approaching the finish. At the same time south winds of around 4 Beaufort will be blowing, while temperature will range between 17-19°C in the first half of the route and between 20-22°C in the second half.
