Seven people, among them a child, were confirmed dead on Sunday, and rescuers on Monday found the body of a man who was swept into the sea.
The island of Evia, north of Athens, was hit the worst, with massive rainfall forcing hundreds of people to climb onto the roofs of their homes in order to escape the water.
According to local reports, the amount of water that rained in the region of Evia's capital Chalkida during the storm was the equivalent of a six-months average.
