Meteorologist Klearchos Marousakis has published a new weather map showing how the weather will develop, highlighting areas with high probability of hailstorms.
“Good weather brings hail too,” the meteorologist initially commented, drawing attention for tomorrow “especially from our farmers, as our forecasts show hail probabilities close to 50% to 60%, particularly for areas in the central and northern mainland regions.”
“This indicator clearly implies the occurrence of severe thunderstorms in general,” he concluded in his post.
