EasyChair Preprint no. 611

Abstract

The warm period has always been of special interest as far as the rainfall systems and their predictability are concerned. The weather incident, not seasonally common, that took place during July 16 and 17, 2017 was a particular synoptic system case not only due to its structure, spatial and temporal evolution, but also due to the intensity and seriousness of the phenomena. The purpose of this case study is to analyze the synoptic environment of the particular system using troposphere's upper and lower maps that are daily available in Hellenic National Meteorological Service’s database by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and the real-time weather data, in conjunction with the corresponding images from the Eumetsat satellites.
