Today’s weather forecast, by the Air Force.

North

Irregular cloud cover, more compact over lower Veneto, Liguria, Emilia-Romagna and close to the remaining mountains where scattered rain will be possible. During the afternoon, isolated thunderstorms are expected in the Alpine and pre-Alpine areas, but which will result in possible invasion of the flat areas of Veneto. From the evening, absorption of the phenomena with subsequent strong clearings.

Centre

Initially partially cloudy skies, then more compact clouds will form over the Adriatic regions, lower Lazio and Umbria already in the late morning, with associated scattered rain and isolated thunderstorms, the latter starting from the afternoon hours. Variable weather, however, in the rest of the center during the afternoon; clouds alternating with sunny spells over Sardinia with light and scattered rain, more likely in the eastern area.

South

Many clouds in the south and over Sicily, with shower or thunderstorm precipitation first over the island and Calabria and subsequently extending in the afternoon to the rest of the south during the afternoon; intense phenomena expected on the island.

Temperatures

Minimum temperatures decreasing over Sardinia, northern Sicily, the Tyrrhenian areas of Calabria, as well as over Tuscany, the remaining northern Apennines and that of Marche, Abruzzo and Molise, slightly rising in northern Piedmont, lower Veneto and the Emilian plain, stationary on the rest of the country; maximum temperatures dropping sharply in the south and on Sicily, with even ten degrees less expected on the island. Weakly decreasing in southern Sardinia, central-southern Lazio and Abruzzo, without significant changes in the rest of Sardinia, increasing in the north and the remaining central regions, also marked in Piedmont.

Twenty

Generally weak northerners, except for local reinforcements on Sardinia.
