<p dir="auto">By far, the most serious situation appears to be in <strong>Greece</strong>, where up to hundreds of millimeters of rain could fall in the next few days, causing <strong>flash floods, landslides, and floating debris</strong> that could pose a serious danger to residents.</p>

The pink colour in the default colour scale for Rain accumulation covers a wide range from <strong>150mm to more than 1000mm</strong>. It gives a very imprecise map. Compare with my own one:</p>
<p dir="auto"><img src="/assets/uploads/files/1693933072386-7558f85a-2746-442c-8264-3a635f32ee68.jpeg" alt="7558F85A-2746-442C-8264-3A635F32EE68.jpeg" class=" img-fluid img-markdown" /></p>
<p dir="auto">The purple colour shows more 600mm in the next 3 days at this location.</p>
