Big cold since February
As meteorologist Clearkos Marousakis points out, Until the end of January Temperatures won’t be particularly cold, but there will only be a few cold snaps.
However, he notes that February can be very cold.

«Bad weather in front of the gate
After several days of summer, a depression from Central Europe will try to remind us of something from late autumn in our country, causing short bad weather with the main characteristics of rain – storms and strong winds in our seas.
There will also be snow from the mountains of the central and northern mainland. We had to reach the middle of January to remember something about the bad weather in our country.
At this point I recall our long-term assessment presented on our TV show #OPENnews from early December. . A few days later we predicted mild – spring weather until Epiphany following our new assessment, and here we were also vindicated.
Trend till end of month
The long-term models we run at our station do not produce any significant winter views until the end of the month. This situation is due to the strong movement of depressions in the North Atlantic Ocean and is clearly linked to the extreme-extreme weather conditions that North America has been experiencing recently. This flow of planetary Rossby tides prevents the Azores from lifting the atmospheric mountain to higher latitudes, which in turn pushes the polar winds further south. All this flow prevents Siberia’s atmospheric mountain from moving further west and south. Therefore, until the end of the month we should not expect significant and particularly prolonged cold. We can see some “fireballs” of cold, but they don’t make an organized winter scene.
Penguins come after alkyonides???
The development we described above could lead to a deep winter in February, but we still don’t have enough data to do a deeper analysis.
This strong westerly flow or zonal circulation will at some point end or weaken enough to allow atmospheric ridges to move further north to reduce cooling. It may seem far off to emerge as an estimate, but we should be prepared for such things as experience takes us there.
Below is a color chart showing the approximate precipitation expected Monday afternoon through Wednesday evening. The darker the colors, the more serious consequences are predicted.
