Greece won't have much different temperatures than Norway tomorrow! It's going to be warm and windy again in the morning, but in the evening the wind direction will turn to North and the temperature fall will begin. The snow limit will get down to 300-500m in North Greece and there is a possibility to snow along the coastlines of Northeast Greece on Saturday night. Sunday will be cold all over Greece with some phenomena, but the weather will soon get sunny and warmer again on Monday.
