Kolidas: Foen-type winds are coming – where the temperature will hit 30 degrees on Tuesday

The director of EMY, Thodoris Kolidas, spoke about Foen-type winds, on the occasion of the weather forecast for the next few days.

Th. Kolydas said that tomorrow, Tuesday, the temperature may rise even more and even exceed 30 degrees, mainly in Crete, or where the locally strengthened downwinds of the Foen type will once again play an important role.

“Many times we have seen comparable or even greater differences of 16°C between North-West Greece and Southern Island areas, especially in cases where strong southerly downward winds prevail. Of course, we are not referring to something “unprecedented”, such as e.g. for today’s 28 °C in Heraklion and 11 to 12 °C in the northwest.

Tomorrow, Tuesday, we may catch even higher prices (the 30s), but it won’t be much, as reported in the press. These prices will be limited mainly in Crete, or where the locally strengthened Foen-type descending winds will again play an important role,” wrote Mr Kolidas specifically.

The Kolyda forecast for Easter

“The temperature deviations in the lower layers of the atmosphere (at the level of 850 hPa, at a height of 1,500m from the surface) show us that after the noticeable drop in temperature since Thursday, the weather will warm up again, heading towards Easter. But there won’t be big temperature extremes, like the ones we experienced the previous 15 days,” Thodoris Kolidas also wrote on Platform X last week.
