Weather report: Greek summer nears end as storm hits Thessaloniki

A fierce storm hit Thessaloniki on Thursday night, resulting in dozens of homes being flooded and two motorists becoming marooned along submerged streets which were completely submerged in murky water, according to greekreporter.com.

The fire service received over 150 calls with seventeen requests for flooded homes or basement areas to be pumped out.

Thessaloniki traffic on Friday was appreciably slower than normal, with several collisions recorded in the morning due to the slippery, muddy road surfaces.
