Confirmed. Peristeri seems the warmest part of Athens, ex aequo with Moschato:

Extremely interesting article about temperature distributions inside Athens: http://kkccyu.cjb.net/science/article/pii/S2210670710000041

Full-text pdf: http://kkccyu.cjb.net/science?_ob=M...2a53c2845b6edb133c040b48b7b&ie=/sdarticle.pdf

(not sure that the full-text link is static, just clic PDF (2762 K) in the previous page).

:confused::confused:
Very strange. I see the article abstract, the full-text html and the full-text PDF, but if I clic the link above I get the usual page "purchase the article".

Who is interested in and can't access the full text, ask me the article. In some way we arrange.

A quick note; I have computed the integration mean of Elefsina for these 3 months in order to compare it with the figures above, and it is 27,8°C (June 2009 = 26,3°C; July 2009 = 28,9°C, August = 28,5°C).

Também isso é interessante



Parece que a Grécia se sente ameaçado por um aquecimento e uma grave deterioração de suas condições climáticas.

I can proudly announce that Athens has achieved its maximum greater than 50°C, recorded by a station that is (self-) defined WMO compliant.

See this topic:
http://www.ukweatherworld.co.uk/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=43914&posts=3&start=1

The wonderful maximum of +52,77°C (new European record for WMO compliant stations but not official because the station does not belong to a network affiliated with WMO) was measured in Athens on 07/10/2004 (October 7, 2004) at 15:08:

Here we see a graph of this performance:

Approximately at the center of the graph, we can see a peak indicating the volitive power of the purest tempered steel, we can define its top as solitude of the heights above 50°C.

We obtain negative sunshine durations, negative solar radiations, wind speeds of 14700 m/s, values that suggest that these data are not validated by human personnel, it is a raw database.

Now I hope Athens does not shoot a true +50°C this summer; if so I should escape friar :hehe:

Had you going there for a minute ha?I would just love to see the dread and fear in Amending's eyes when he show my topic.I would even pay for that to be honest!!:D

Meanwhile and leaving aside the creative statistics of Amending,lets see how Athens and Attica are going to lead again this summer in Europe.Apart from last summer with a definitive victory over Andalusia,lets see how the summer of 2011 is gonna pan out for Athens

http://www.ukweatherworld.co.uk/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=43274&start=121&posts=139

You can defo feel Amending's stress there ;)

Let Athens rule Europe ONCE AGAIN!!!

Currently for July only Athens is leading the way in Europe.I have a feeling that Attica is going for a rather warm July and I am expecting Athens to win the accolade of warmest area in Europe for the entirety of summer 2011,as was also the story for last summer.

In fact during August 2010 Seville managed its mean record and even with a record breaking month for Seville in term of means (that was not the story for Athens) Seville was unable to beat Athens.

Let me remind you that from all the WMO stations in Europe the Thiseio station managed the warmest mean summer temperature for June,July,August kneeling Seville.I think the pattern is going to be the same this year as well.

Apart from the mean temps and coming back on topic it seems that Athens and 50C gives us roughly 80.000 hits in google in the Greek language

Poor Mesogeiakos, to beat Sevilla airport he has to find a weather station situated in the center of a city of several million people with a huge heat island.
Even then, Sevilla airport is hotter than the center of Athens.
A sad result for him and it had caused his absence from the forum for a long time.

Weather stations from Seville, Almería, Faro and Palermo at airports. Weather stations from Athens at donwtown.
Even so, Seville airport and Almeria airport are warmer than Athens downtown



Poor man. :)

I understand you have a difficulty in reading comprehension of the English language.Now let's do baby steps and tackle two terms.SUMMER and MEANS.

I suggest you kneel to Athens mate!

Costa,then maybe you need check the 1971-2000 summer averages for Thiseio which are directly comparable to Seville and with the use of simple mean method calculation (the one used by AEMET) in order to have comparable data,Seville kneels to Athens.;)

I am surprised you are not well read,you participate in the UK forum after all

1971-2000 Thiseio WMO id 16714

June
30.6
20.4

July

33.1
22.8

August

32.8
22.5

Those are readily available from the National Observatory of Athens
http://cirrus.meteo.noa.gr/forecast/bolam/index.htm check monthly bulletins and the month of interest

In fact if you look at the last decade you will not find a single year that Athens has not destroyed Seville in the summer means.They offer detailed data from 2001 onwards...

Link to those Thiseio averages?

Costa posted official data and personally I’m starting to feel annoyed of all these senseless talk of “mine is bigger than yours, my city is hotter than yours, we’re the best, blá, blá…

For me what counts is official data!

Have you official data that support your argumentation if yes, go ahead and tell us, otherwise I prefer to believe in real data!
