Two CA maxima are influencing Greece and the eastern Mediterranean Sea: one is approaching from the north on the rear side of the Cold Front in Cold Advection and propagating southward, and another one is approaching from the south on the rear side of the surface low propagating north-eastward (right image top). Till 18.00 UTC the zeroline of TA has moved eastward into the Aegean Sea and crosses Crete just in the middle. Thus, at 18.00 UTC VSRF says that colder air has overflown Greece and part of the Island while much warmer air is just overflowing Turkey.
