The last few days of hot weather; from Wednesday, rain and a drop in temperatures
The change is expected on Wednesday 9th, but in the northern regions the first signs of the change could arrive as early as Tuesday, with lower temperatures and unsettled weather across the Alpine regions, particularly Piedmont, Lombardy and Veneto
Key points
The last few days of intense heat. Monday and Tuesday could be the last days with above-average temperatures, and cooler air and rain are expected from Wednesday.
Substantial change
“A substantial change is on the horizon compared with what we have seen so far,” notes Bernado Gozzini, director of the Lamma Consortium at the National Research Council.
Whilst long-term forecasts are impossible and the end of September may hold a few surprises, one thing is certain: ‘the end of a long summer’ is now imminent.
Weather system from the Atlantic
This is being caused by ‘greater atmospheric circulation’ due to the arrival of a weather system from the Atlantic: a low-pressure system that will initially reach Great Britain and France and then move on to Italia, where a sharp drop in temperature is expected.
Possible unsettled weather from as early as Tuesday
The change is expected on Wednesday 9th, but in the northern regions the first signs of the change could arrive as early as Tuesday, with lower temperatures and unsettled weather over the Alpine regions, particularly Piedmont, Lombardy and Veneto.
