The bad weather that is affecting
Italy in these hours is slowly moving towards the south-east,
and will leave the Peninsula by Sunday evening but will still
bring some major and at times intense phenomena with a Saturday
with snow in the hills and cold storms elsewhere, Mattia
Gussoni, a meteorologist of the site www.iLMeteo.it, said
Saturday.
Gussoni confirmed a residual phase of bad weather especially on
the coastal areas of Marche and Abruzzo, and southern Lazio and
Campania, and said residual storms will hit Romagna, Tuscany and
Umbria, while the most widespread rains will affect the South.
There will be more snow above 400 meters on the northern
Apennines, above 700 meters between Lazio, Molise and Campania,
above 1000-1200 meters on the rest of the southern high ground.
Temperatures will fluctuate Saturday, Gussoni said. The maximums
will rise significantly in the North thanks to the return of
full sun, while they will drop drastically, however, between
Marche, Abruzzo, Umbria and the South.
The residual bad weather of the St Valentine Cyclone will also
be associated with strong winds, Gussoni said.
"We will have a cold storm from the northern quadrants on the
middle-upper Adriatic until late morning and on Sardinia and
Sicily for the whole day, with very rough or locally rough
seas," he said.
"On Sunday the rain will stop in the South, from the afternoon,
and the weather will be dry everywhere. As a trend, after a
Monday that was still gray at times, more sun is expected for
several days and over much of Italy."
Detailed forecast: - Saturday 15th. In the North: last snowfalls
at low altitude in Romagna, then sun everywhere. In the Center:
widespread snow on the hills then improving. In the South: bad
weather with snow from 1000 meters.
- Sunday 16th. In the North: cloudy; frost in the morning. In
the Center: from sun to clouds. In the South: last rains until
early afternoon.
- Monday 17th. In the North: partly cloudy; frost in the
morning. In the Center: cloudy, especially on the Tyrrhenian
coasts and with some showers. In the South: irregularly cloudy.
