1 meter of it will fall at low altitudes as far as the plains! »ILMETEO.it

Plenty of snow on the wayIn the sun 48 ore we will see the transit of the most powerful disturbance of this winter that it will cause snow accumulations up to 1 meter on some areas of our country!

Saturday 26 it will form a minimum of low pressure on the northern Tyrrhenian Sea, in very fast movement up to the Apulian coasts; Finally, on Sunday, the minimum depression will travel from Puglia to Ionian Greece, but even from this position it will still be able to favor snowfall in the Center-South. Also noteworthy is the comeback of a high pressure ridge between Poland and Estonia for Sunday, which will favor a strong wind gradient for a few days: in other words, both at the weekend and at the beginning of next week, at least until Tuesday 1 March, strong or very strong winds from the north north-east will sweep a large part of central-southern Italy.

But why are we talking about pressure and winds? Why the name it will often be “windy” and for this reason the accumulations may be even higher than those foreseen by the computing centers, at least in some areas, especially on the mountain ridges extending in a transversal direction to the north-eastern icy currents, where they can occur, just think, accumulate up to 1 meter!

But where will it snow? Light snowfalls are expected, a dusting up to 3/400 meters above sea level between eastern Emilia Romagna and Marche and here, locally due to “paroxysmal” and / or thunderstorms the snow could also whiten the plains. In Tuscany, from late Friday evening light snowfalls will be possible up to 4/600 meters in the Apennines, at hilly altitudes also in the provinces of Arezzo and Siena.

On the day of Saturday 26on the other hand, the snowfalls will be more abundant, not just a dusting, but tens and tens of centimeters: the snow level will drop down to 2/300 meters on the central Adriatic sectors and up to 4/500 meters on the rest of the central-southern regions.
In the morning 20/40 cm are expected on Basse Marche and Abruzzo, about ten centimeters on the Umbrian hills and up to 5 cm in the Apennine valleys, above 2/300 meters; from 12 onwards the most intense snow phenomena will affect Abruzzo e Molisewith a maximum accumulation of half a meter, a really important snowfall for this winter 2021-22, decidedly stingy from this point of view: from the weather satellite, on Friday morning, with the sky clear, all the Apennines appeared desolately free of snow or with very little snow, a late spring landscape.

But precisely, everything is about to change: and also the Sunday he will see from the night and until lunchtime another 5/15 cm from the Basse Marche to Basilicata, again with the involvement of the eastern sectors of Lazio and Campania. In the second part of the holiday, however, only the last sprays of snow are expected, with complete cessation of the event expected by the morning of Monday 28 February: but beware, on Monday evening a resurgence, a return from Albania of a cold core, could bring the snow back to the Apulian beaches! Snow forecast for the next few days

What will happen next? High pressure from Tuesday 1 March should bring the sun back for more days; the rays will make the accumulated snow shine and then, from the meteorological satellite, we will return to enjoy winter images, even in the Center-South .. find_in_page {background-color: # ffff00! important; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; overflow: visible! important;}. find_selected {background-color: # ff9632! important; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; overflow: visible! important;}
