A fresh anticyclone from Normandy is
bringing rain from northern to southern Italy but conditions
will start to improve Friday and it will be sunny everywhere at
the weekend, forecaster Lorenzo Tedici said Tuesday.
The cyclone, he said at IlMeteo.it, "will bring rain and
thunderstorms with local hailstorms in all the north and between
Sardinia and Tuscany, then from the afternoon on it will gain
ground towards the rest of central Italy.
"In the south, in this first phase, only isolated showers are
forecast in Campania, and for the rest the weather will be dry
and relatively hot with temperatures up to 28°C".
On Wednesday the cyclone will however conquer the whole of
southern Italy.
Precipitation will also hit the centre, save for Tuscany, while
in the north the weather will return mainly sunny but with
clouds gathering and a last few showers in Emilia-Romagna, the
Alps and the Alpine foothills.
On Thursday the bad weather will again hit the south, in partial
return towards the mid-Adriatic and locally Lazio too; while in
parts the rain will be strong because of the thermal clashes
between the cool and unstable Norman air and the warm air
previously present in the south.
"But on Friday we will see a general improvement," said Tedici,
adding that the cyclone will shift away towards Greece and there
will remain merely a widespread instability between Calabria and
Sicily, especially over higher ground, and the weekend will be
pleasant and sunny almost everywhere."
