Greece is experiencing its first major heatwave of the year, with temperatures set to climb to 42°C–43°C in some regions and remain at dangerous levels through Wednesday. Meteorologists are warning of extreme conditions, while health authorities are urging citizens to take precautions, particularly those most vulnerable to heat-related illnesses.

The heatwave will reach its peak on Monday and Tuesday, with temperatures of 40°C–41°C expected across many mainland areas. The hottest conditions are forecast in the Thessalian plain, where Larissa could reach 42°C and Trikala up to 43°C. Central Greece, including Lamia, as well as parts of Agrinio and the Peloponnese, including Argos and Sparta, may also experience temperatures around 42°C.

A major weather shift is expected on Wednesday. A Balkan weather front will bring cooler conditions, rain and thunderstorms to northern Greece, particularly Macedonia and Thrace. However, areas from Thessaly southward will continue to face intense heat, with strong westerly winds potentially pushing temperatures even higher in eastern mainland regions. Attica is expected to see its most challenging day, with temperatures approaching 40°C in central Athens.
