Weather in Velouchi road crossing today and tomorrow: check the local weather forecast and the hourly weather meteogram for temperature, precipitation and wind. Check the mountain pass elevation, map and available road access information.
The Velouchi road crossing links the Karpenisi and ski-centre side with Agia Triada on the northern side of Mount Tymfristos. The mapped asphalt road includes a tunnel near the ski area and continues towards the villages of Evrytania.

Source-check time and the date a status became valid are shown separately. A weather forecast cannot establish whether a road is open.
The map marker lies on the mapped road. Approximately 1,870 m is an EU-DEM terrain estimate for this reference point, not a surveyed named saddle or the highest elevation of the entire route.
Karpenisi–Velouchi–Agia Triada
From Karpenisi, the road climbs towards the ski area. Near the facilities, the Agia Triada road continues through a tunnel to the northern side. This guide’s reference point lies on the road south of the tunnel; it is not the summit of Velouchi.
Through crossing and ski access
Being able to reach the ski centre from Karpenisi does not confirm that the onward road to Agia Triada is open. Check the northern approach and tunnel specifically, especially in snowy conditions. Without a recent update, the crossing remains unconfirmed.
The pass and its story
Velouchi is the familiar name of the Tymfristos mountain area above Karpenisi. The mountain is listed in the Natura 2000 network as Oros Tymfristos (Velouchi). The present route combines ski-area access with a connection towards northern Evrytania’s settlements; this guide has not established a construction date for the road or tunnel.
When to plan a crossing
No fixed annual opening calendar has been verified. Snow, ice, snow clearance and works can affect the two sides differently. Before setting out, check the whole journey to your destination, not only access as far as the ski area.
Look for a notice explicitly covering the Velouchi–Agia Triada road. Lift operation does not establish that the through crossing is possible.
Check restrictions for your own vehicle, both approaches and the return journey. A nearby tunnel may have different opening rules from the road over the pass.
Distances are approximate straight-line distances from the pass, not driving distances or connections by pistes or lifts. Check your route and the road status before travelling.
Distances are approximate straight-line distances. They are not driving distances, and nearby places may lie across an inaccessible ridge or a border.

Start with the 14-day weather forecast. Open the detailed tables to compare models, then explore hourly temperature, precipitation, wind and 850 hPa in the meteogram. Ensembles show the spread of possible outcomes; satellite images show observed clouds.
Available model families combine per variable. “Today” with hours in parentheses covers the stated window; subsequent days require full local coverage. Days 8–14 are less certain; missing
data remain blank. Snowfall cm are fresh snow, not snow depth. Sea-level pressure.
Terrain temperature downscaling by Open-Meteo; no Agios Stefanos calibration. A point

Weather ensembles · Weather in Velouchi road crossing
850 hPa temperature, 2 m temperature and precipitation ensembles for Weather in Velouchi road crossing. Choose Open-Meteo or Direct. Auto tries Open-Meteo first, then Direct when unavailable. Direct retains the native time steps of each model; the displayed source and interval apply. Individual member availability varies by model and variable.

This summary uses the destination’s fixed coordinates and the historical service’s terrain elevation. It does not change with the forecast’s manual elevation setting. Mountain terrain, wind redistribution and snowmaking are not fully represented. Snowfall days do not indicate opening days or piste snow depth.
Explore rain and snowfall frequency, monthly average daily lows and highs, and daily
temperature extremes over the selected period.

Choose 10, 20 or 30 years of temperature and precipitation history. The 100-year option searches for a nearby NOAA station with a sufficiently long record; the table shows the actual coverage. NASA POWER / MERRA-2 and ERA5 provide gridded historical estimates, while NOAA GHCNd contains station observations. These sources are shown separately, not combined into one time series.
A precipitation day has at least 1 mm of total precipitation. Where a source reports rain separately, the rain-day figure covers rain alone. A snowfall day has at least 0.1 cm of fresh snow where that variable is available; it does not establish snow cover on the ground. NASA POWER does not provide snowfall here. Blank values mean missing data, not zero. Averages and extremes use only the complete months or years stated in the table. These historical figures do not automatically calibrate the forecast.
Integrated Forecasting System: the intergovernmental European centre’s numerical model. IFS 9 km and IFS 0.25° are products of the same model family on different data grids.
Global Environmental Multiscale: the atmospheric model within Canada’s GDPS. The current system combines numerical prediction with large-scale guidance from the GEML AI model.
Artificial intelligence ensemble with 31 members. It complements the single AIGFS forecast with alternative scenarios and their spread.
The blend uses the values available for each day and variable. Coverage falls as individual models reach their forecast limits. The two IFS products are not independent models. Model spread shows disagreement, not the probability of a weather event.
Wind: maximum daily speed at 10 m and prevailing direction of origin. Direction uses a speed-weighted circular calculation; missing or strongly opposing directions display a dash. 🥶: low below 0°C. 🥵: high above 30°C. 💨 in Conditions: wind at least 40 km/h or gusts at least 60 km/h.
The choice applies to widgets, maps and forecasts. Actual station readings stay unchanged. Automatic tries Open-Meteo first, then available direct sources if a supported request fails.
Open-Meteo
Data service providing forecasts from NOAA, ECMWF, ECCC, DWD, the Met Office, Météo-France and JMA. Available models, variables and grids depend on the location and product.
Direct model sources
XIONIA collects data directly from the model providers. Forecasts and maps are served after the source cycle has been published and collected. The selected product shows its model, resolution, available variables and run.
How models combine
Each available family contributes once per variable. Direct forecasts select the freshest available GFS grid and use equal family weights as the baseline. Local weights apply only where enabled after validation. The comparison shows actual percentages and model cycles.
Additional model forecasts are also shown for comparison and backtesting. Their presence does not automatically add weight to the combined forecast; check the displayed weights.
Coverage and missing values
A dash means unavailable data. Wind and gust may use different models. AIGFS temperature is excluded when it cannot be compared on the same elevation basis. Six-hour precipitation is water equivalent, not snow depth.
Time window
A “Today” label with hours in parentheses covers only the stated time window; subsequent days require full local coverage. Days 8–14 are a less certain outlook. Agreement between models is not a probability from a true ensemble.
Ensemble forecasts
Ensemble systems provide multiple forecast scenarios; the available systems appear in the chart selector and image catalogue. AIGFS is the single forecast; AIGEFS is the separate ensemble. Available variables and forecast horizons differ by system.
