In Athens, cloudy skies may bring a few brief showers on Tuesday and longer downpours on Wednesday, though the daytime temperature will remain moderate at around 15C.

Showers in Thessaloniki are expected to be quite strong in parts, while the northern port city should also expect fog on Tuesday and Wednesday, as well as a high temperature of 11C.
