How we survived a storm and a heatwave in the eastern Mediterranean
John Woolf writes this story while sheltering on the island of Naxos from Storm Daniel, one of the worst Mediterranean cyclones in history
Storm Daniel is, as I write, sending 45-knot Meltemi winds down through the Greek islands. We are sheltering aboard Celestine, an aluminium Carambola 38 masthead sloop, moored in Kalantos, a tiny fishing harbour at the southern tip of Naxos in the Aegean. Some areas of Greece have experienced record flooding of biblical proportions, with 730mm of rain in 24 hours.
