If you’ve successfully synced your internal clock with the new daylight savings schedule, today is your reward. We are currently navigating the quiet tail-end of a weak low-pressure system, making for a perfectly respectable partly cloudy Tuesday. You might notice a stray shower after midday, but it’s mostly a day for catching up on life before the atmosphere gets dramatic again.
Temperatures are leaning into spring, reaching 21°C inland and a steady 20°C along the coasts. If you’re escaping to the mountains, expect a crisp 10°C. The wind is behaving itself for now, and the sea is keeping its cool. Up at Chionistra, the snow is down to its last 9 cm, a final reminder of a winter that’s officially packing its bags.
Tonight remains quiet, but don't let the stillness fool you. A much more assertive system named Erminio is currently gathering strength over the Central Mediterranean and is scheduled to move in tomorrow.
Wednesday (tomorrow): Erminio arrives with a lot of baggage. Expect the sky to turn hazy as suspended dust moves in, followed by local showers and isolated thunderstorms. If you hear a sudden clatter on the roof, it’s likely hail, which is a confirmed guest for tomorrow's storms. By evening, things could get locally intense.
Thursday: The unstable vibes continue with more rain and thunder, though the weather is expected to pull a disappearing act and improve noticeably from the afternoon onwards.
Friday: We’re back to partly cloudy skies with only a minor chance of a post-midday shower.
Temperatures will take a small dip tomorrow as the storms roll through, but a gradual warm-up starts on Thursday, keeping us right around the seasonal average. Today is your best opportunity for errands and outdoor coffee. Once Erminio and his dusty entourage arrive on Wednesday, you’ll probably want to stay indoors and let the storm pass.
