Last night's minimum temperatures across Europe...
Surprising how the Gulf of Bothnia keeps the night temperatures up in coastal Sweden above about 60N, wouldn't have thought it would make much difference at this time of year with short nights/sea probably not being all that much warmer than the land.
But only 35C at Luqa. Do you have a link with the 40C reading ?
Luqa reached 35.6C. The Met Office only give current obs for the other stations but it reached 40C at Selmun this afternoon. I have a screen grab when it was 39C...

But Elefsis is a town near Athens, doesn't belong to the metro area itself. Same history happens with Eleftherios International Airport. Actually the former Elliniko Airport, wich is within Athens, reported a max of 40ºC today.
Wich were the maxs in the Hellinikon and Votanikos stations?
Today's maximum temperatures across Europe... Still below average across much of northern, central & western Europe, though warmer across parts of Scandinavia.

Hellenikon maybe 40 C. Generally I saw that many stations in Athens (center or suburbs) had 40-43 C.
Yes the placement of temperatures on WeatherOnline maps isn't exact. There are quite a few lighthouses that come up when you put the cursor over the temperatures...

Elfsis is a mere 10 miles from Athens center
