A new wave is affecting the country, making the atmosphere stifling until at least Sunday, May 25, 2025. The prevailing southern winds are favoring a new episode of African dust transport, according to meteo.gr. Increased dust concentrations are expected from Friday, peaking on Saturday in the western and southern parts of the country. Gradually, the dust will shift eastward, impacting mainly the eastern and southern regions by Sunday. From Monday, northerly winds will limit dust transport to the southeastern areas and contribute to its dissipation.

By Monday, weather conditions are expected to change, bringing showers and scattered thunderstorms, particularly in northern and central areas, with a drop in temperatures across the country.
