Weather

Corfu, Greece

Corfu keeps the sunny-island motif today: around 22C early, feeling closer to 25C, and rising to about 24C this afternoon. Rain risk stays low, roughly 5-15%, with light southerly breeze and some cloud around midday, so it is still a sunscreen, water, sunglasses, and easy layers day. For Paleokastritsa or beach wandering, the UV is the bigger issue than rain.
