Another 24 hours at the mercy of the cyclone spoil-summer with bad weather moving east and south, then high pressure will return with temperatures up to 35-37°C on weekends. The stormy phenomena will be intensified by the sea temperature, with the water locally still at 28-29°C. All this surplus of marine heat, a memory of the “dictatorship” of the African anticyclone Caronte, which lasted 35 days, provides energy to thunderstorms which develop more intensely in the open sea and along the coasts.
In the next few hours we will have heavy showers from Romagna to Molise, but also between Sicily, Calabria and lower Campania will develop another area of severe weather. The attack will be twofold: from the east north-east towards the central northern Adriatic regions and from the west south-west towards the South. It will be the classic cyclonic spinning top that, at the moment, is right above our heads. This spinning top will then move on Wednesday 21 August towards Greece and Turkey, favoring a general improvement in our country, except for the last storms in the South and on the Adriatic side especially close to the reliefs. From Thursday the high pressure will return forcefully and the summer-spoiling cyclone will only be a memory: we will have sunshine again and temperatures around 30°C everywhere, with peaks over 35.
