Snow Reaches Athens' North

Ice and rare snowfall blanketed Athens' northern suburbs in recent days, as a polar front brought swaths of Greece to a standstill. Mountainous regions on Evia and Lesvos islands were similarly transformed, with heavy snow reported in high-altitude areas across East Macedonia, Evia, Attica, and Crete.

The Greek National Meteorological Service (EMY) warned of worsening conditions, forecasting relentless snow and freezing rain across much of the country.
