On June 19, 2026, the Greek Fire Service announced that thirteen regions of the country are at high risk (level 3) for wildfires, as detailed in their fire risk forecast map. This increased risk is attributed to the weather conditions prevailing at the time, including strong winds known as "meltemia," as noted by meteorologist Klearchos Marousakis.
The forecast indicates that these weather patterns are expected to continue, further elevating the risk of wildfires in the affected areas. The authorities have urged vigilance among residents and visitors in these regions to mitigate the potential impact of such fires.
