«Ariadne» visits Agrinio: most
people are unready against bad
weather
Icy temperatures and heavy snowfall have inflicted the
European continent last weekend. Blizzards afflicted
unexpected places in Greece, too. Even Agrinio was under
heavy snow warning after many decades.
In very short time the city was covered with snow. Children didn’t miss the
opportunity to go outside to play with snow, despite of the bitter cold. The
possibility of closed schools made them extremely active.
However, there were consequences, too. Freezing
temperatures caused slippery roadways. A lot of
villages were cut off from the rest of the country,
while many houses remained without electricity for
hours.
Most of the residents of Agrinio enjoyed the snow very much, as the children did!!!
They finally faced a “white” day!!!

Heavy snowfall covers Agrinio
It’s been over 10 years since the last time it snowed in Agrinio. Still yesterday
Agrinio’s residents woke up in a snow covered city which took them by surprise.
As it was expected, children were overjoyed and played in the snow all day long.
They were taking photos in the snow, they were making snowmen and they were
throwing snowballs to each other.
Though, it was not all fun. There were many bad consequences that caused many
problems. The roads were slippery, there were traffic jams, the temperatures
dropped below zero and there were many power cuts all over Agrinio.
Fortunately, it only lasted two days and after that, everything went back to

Many people struggle to deal with the snow
In Greece the snow arrived in villages and small towns like my town Agrinio. The
temperature dropped below zero resulting in freezing roads and cars. But there
was a positive side, too. Children went out, started playing with the snow and
took photos. It was snowing from 10 am till 12 pm at noon
Many people tried to save their crops from the ice which was caught on the
trees. Also, many trees fell down and broke from the winds that has the ice
with the fruit trees. In the north of Greece, the temperature dropped so much
and the schools are still frozen. Probably this winter will be the coldest!!!
