atmospheric circulation on the synoptic scale it is still largely affected by a large high high centered in the UK but extending as far west as Scandinavia. The low pressures are forced to organize themselves in southern latitudes but at the moment there are none near Italy. in the Mediterranean the pressure is maintained at average values between 1014 and 1018 hPa, enough to guarantee almost total stability in the coolest hours of the day but unable to prevent the formation of locally intense heat storms in the afternoon or night. Add to this some light fresh infiltration of the northeast that caused storms in part of the north during the night and the first hours of the morning with accumulations even important, of up to 35 mm in the area of Veronese. So a Saturday still characterized by some locally intense thunderstorms but not widespread, while the instability on Sunday afternoon will be a little more extensive. The thermal context will be moderately hot with average maximum temperatures between 25 and 28°C and some punctual peaks above 28°C. But let’s see more details:
WEATHER SATURDAY NEXT HOURS: North, patchy cloudiness in the morning, with occasional isolated showers. In the afternoon, greater instability in the central-eastern alpine and pre-alpine sectors with the possibility of storms. Electrical storms also in the central-eastern Apennines of Liguria, more occasional phenomena in the other mountainous sectors, unlikely in the plains. In the afternoon some isolated storms in the western Alps and Pre-Alps, in other places greater variability but with new storms at night in mid-high Lombardy and Piedmont. Center, sunny in the morning, afternoon with isolated instability in upper Tuscany and lower Lazio with a few showers or brief thunderstorms. Better everywhere at night. South, predominant sun in the morning, afternoon with thunderstorms in the Campanian, Lucanian and Calabrian mountain ranges with local phenomena that extend to the Tyrrhenian coast between Cilento and upper Calabria. Some isolated thunderstorms are also possible in inland areas of Sicily. Better everywhere at night. temperatures no big changes. winds weak or moderate northerners. Locally rough seas.
SUNDAY WEATHER: Northscattered clouds in the morning with large openings especially in the east. Afternoon with storm formation in the alpine and pre-alpine sectors, also in the center-east of the Ligurian Apennines, here with local phenomena that extend towards the coast. Between afternoon and night still some storms between Piedmont and Lombardy. Center, sunny in the morning, in the afternoon with thunderstorms in Upper Tuscany, the Apennines of Lazio and Abruzzo. Better everywhere at night. South, predominant sun in the morning, afternoon with storms in the Molise, Campania, Lucania and Calabria mountain ranges, storms also in the inland areas of Sardinia, isolated in the mountains of inland Sicily. Better everywhere at night. temperatures no big changes. winds weak or moderate northerners. Locally rough seas.
