The African anticyclone Scipio is set
to push temperatures up to 37-39 degrees C in the shade across
Italy and as far up as 40 degrees in the inland parts of
Sardinia and Sicily, forecasters said Tuesday.
Scipio's torrid wave will sweep aside the cooler and breezier
conditions Italians enjoyed over the weekend as the previous
heatwave eased, said Antonio Sano', director and founder of the
website www.iLMeteo.it.
From Wednesday on Scipo will spread its blistering heat from the
centre and the south of Italy to the Po Valley, bringing sticky
and steamy afa with it, said Sanò.
