Weather warning issued for eastern parts of the country

The national weather service EMY on Friday warned of strong storms and showers in eastern parts of the country over the weekend, particularly in the eastern mainland, the islands of the Sporades and Evia.

The wet and windy weather will spread across the Aegean on Saturday evening, hitting the islands and making sailing particularly treacherous, EMY said.

Rainstorms should also be expected in the north on Saturday, along with a small drop in temperatures. Conditions will ease by Sunday.
