The south of Italy will see further
bad weather this weekend with more rain and snow over low
ground, while the centre and north will have extensive sunny
spells, forecasters said Friday.
The first weekend of March will be "bipolar", said Antonio Sanò,
founder of the website www.iLMeteo.it, due to a quasi-tropical
cyclone that has been affecting much of Italy for the last few
days.
The worst of the weather will hit the Ionian coast, Sicily and
Sardinia, with possible thunderstorms moving up from North
Africa, Sanò said.
Meanwhile, in the centre and north, there will be clear and
sunny skies with very little cloud apart from some build-up on
Saturday in Marche, Abruzzo and Molise, and on Sunday in eastern
Liguria and northern Tuscany, Sanò said.
He said that there is a chance of "African heat" returning
within 60 days.
