On September 27, 2023, a powerful weather system named Storm Elias brought a second wave of severe flooding to central Greece, particularly affecting the city of Volos and the island of Evia. The storm came on the heels of the devastating Storm Daniel earlier this month.
While communities in central Greece were still recovering from the aftermath of Storm Daniel, which hit on September 4 and 5, they faced the second heavy rainfall event with the arrival of Storm Elias on September 27, 2023. The second wave of torrential rains and thunderstorms struck areas such as Volos in Thessaly and northern Evia, causing more flooding and landslides.
