http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/index.php?smp=&lang=engShips remained anchored at ports across Greece and dozens of flights were cancelled Tuesday as snow and gale force winds shut down airports, causing havoc across the country. Poor weather across Greece over the last 24 hours has caused problems to the country's road network and paralysed marine and air services. Ship and ferry departures from the main ports of Pireaus, Rafina and Lavrio have been halted due to gale force winds blowing in the Aegean Sea. Strong winds blowing in the Aegean and the southern Mediterranean forced the closure of airports and disrupted dozens of flights on the islands of Milos, Samos and the cities of Hania and Heraklion on the southern island of Crete. Meanwhile, heavy snow blocked many roads on the outskirts of Athens, cutting off traffic around the Penteli and Nea Makri, while drivers were required to equip their vehicles with anti-skid chains on many highways linking northern Greece and the southern Peloponnese. Heavy snowfall in the northern port city of Thessaloniki seriously damaged the public power corporation network, causing power cuts to many towns in northern Greece.)
