Bad weather: sudden hail reminded of winter


Residents of Aigio faced a sudden hailstorm at noon on Thursday 2 March.

According to pelop.gr, even though the sun is shining in Patras, however, just a few kilometers away, in neighboring Aigio, residents suddenly saw streets from the windows of houses … covered with hail! In particular, today in the first half of the day hail suddenly fell in the city, which, as can be seen from the photographs, literally “paved” the streets. According to eyewitnesses, “the picture looked more like winter than spring.”

Nevertheless, it is not for nothing that the Greeks say: “Μάρτης, γδάρτης και κακός παλουκοκαύτης” in March still have to “burn firewood.” Popular wisdom says that, despite the fact that the calendar spring is in the yard, there will still be cold weather. Hang warm clothes early.
