Athens — local weather overview
Athens is in Attica, southern mainland Greece, in a basin between mountains and the Saronic Gulf. A 24 hour forecast is useful here because strong sun, urban heat, sea breezes, winds from the hills, winter showers and differences between the dense centre, open archaeological sites and coastal districts can quickly affect plans.
Athens is usually classified as having a hot summer Mediterranean climate in the Koppen system (Csa), while drier parts of the urban area show a semi arid influence. Summer daytime temperatures often sit around 31-35°C (88-95°F), while winter is commonly about 12-15°C (54-59°F). Summer is dry, sunny and hot, and most rain falls from November to March, when cooler wind, cloud and brief stormy periods are more likely.
Before walking to the Acropolis, through Plaka, Monastiraki, Syntagma Square, the National Garden, Lycabettus Hill, Thiseio or the waterfront near Piraeus, check temperature, wind, rain, UV and visibility. The hourly forecast helps choose better times for museums, viewpoints, shaded streets and evening routes.
