SITUATION. A deep low pressure vortex is forming in the UK and over the course of Weekend will deepen to central-western Europe, also involving Italy in conditions of bad weather even intense. It will be propelled by cold air of Arctic origin that will keep temperatures low enough throughout the disturbed phase in our northern regions, to favor snowfall at low altitudes or even flat. The intensity of the fronts in transit over the Alps will be such as to favor very heavy snowfall, With drifts of fresh snow that will sway about 2 meters at the end of the event. But let’s see in detail:
WEATHER SNOW FRIDAY SNOW IN THE NORTHWEST PLAINS, MORE THAN 1 METER IN THE ALPS. Altered weather from the morning in the northwest with phenomena that extend to the Triveneto e snowfall even on the plains of Piedmont, sometimes even in Lombardy and Triveneto with flakes also in Turin, Novara, Vercelli and Milan, although without significant accumulations. More consistent accumulations in Lower Piedmont with about ten centimeters in Cuneo, even 15/20 cm in Domodossola and Varese, up to 5-15 cm between Novara, Vercelli, Alessandria and in Lomellina. Snow at the bottom of the valley also in Sondrio, Belluno, Trento, Bolzano with accumulations of up to ten centimeters, even if at night the flakes will tend to turn into rain. Abundant snowfall in the Maritime Alps, Upper Piedmont, Lombardy and the Dolomites sector with accumulations of up to 30 / 50cm to the west, even up to a meter to the east, snow also in the interior of Liguria and under Piedmont. In the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, only more than 1000 m are shelled, but with accumulations of up to half a meter at 2000 m in places like Monte Cimone.
SNOW WEATHER SATURDAY. The disturbance will loosen its grip on the westernmost Alps, but the phenomena will persist from upper Piedmont to the eastern Alps, albeit with some scales still possible in lower Piedmont. The heaviest snowfalls will mainly affect the area between the Rhaetian Alps and Cadore, with accumulations too greater than one meter more than 1500 m between Alto Adige and the upper part of Veneto and snow limit of 700/1000 m. Snow of 1300 / 1500m in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines with accumulations of approximately 20 / 30cm at 2000m.
SNOW TIME SUNDAY. The insistence of a vortex in France will continue to cause bad weather in the central-eastern Alps, with lombard snow to the Dolomites sector, even if the rain-snow limit will rise to around 1000/1200 m due to the intense influx of siroccal currents. In general, fresh snow accumulations could be reached even around two meters. more than 1500 m between Alto Adige and Alto Veneto. Snow from around 1700 m in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, but a few tens of centimeters is still possible at 2000 m as at Monte Cimone.
POSSIBLE DAMAGES throughout the weekend over much of the Alps due to the heavy but abundant snow that will fall in the middle of the mountain, such as broken branches, downed utility poles and possible blackouts.
