Although the arrival of the meteorological summer is imminent, until now it has been difficult to associate the concept of summer time with the current time. The African Anticyclonealso known as the generator african heat has kept a low profile for now, thus maintaining a pleasant climate.
Forecasts for June promise a major turning point. However, before we can enjoy the benefits of the summer heat, we will have to navigate a period of unstable weather. This instability is caused by a particular pressure setting.
The Azores anticyclone moves and Italy remains exposed
The Azores anticyclone moves towards northern European latitudes, leaving the Mediterranean and theItaly at the mercy of a pressure vacuum fed by the infiltration of fresh air at high altitude. This means that Italy is not protected from the powerful influence of the anticyclone.
In these last days of May, atmospheric stability will not be at its maximum, far from it. No significant temperature increases are indicated, due to the absence of North African air masses. He heat it will remain contained, making it difficult to get past the 30 degree threshold.
What does the first weekend of June hold for us?
This meteorological picture will last until the first days of June. During Republic Day, there will still be shadow from thunderstorms and not excessive heat. But things could change during the Bridge, when the hole in the Mediterranean depression should be filled and then isolated in Iberia.
The African anticyclone rises again and points to southern Europe
The latest updates indicate a potential change starting the first weekend of June. The most recent projections of the European Meteorological Center predict a resurgence of the subtropical anticyclone, which is heading towards the Central Mediterranean and Italy.
For the first time in weeks, the African anticyclone appears to be making a comeback, targeting southern Europe. This could represent a turning point, with summer finally getting ready to take off.
Summer heat may be on the way
If this trend continues, temperatures could experience a significant increase from June 4 and 5. This could create the conditions for the first wave of Summer heatwith maximum temperatures that can reach 33-35 degrees.
