Following an extended period of intense heat, rainfall has been recorded across Greece on Thursday.
Besides the northeastern suburbs of Athens, rainfall is also being observed in Central Greece, Thessaly, Epirus, and much of Macedonia, according to Meteo.
The weather has led to traffic disruptions in several areas.
In response, the Hellenic National Meteorological Service (HNMS) has issued an emergency weather deterioration bulletin.
The adverse weather is expected to persist until late tonight, bringing locally heavy rain, thunderstorms, strong winds and possible hail.
