Bad weather in Italy. Last night, a whirlwind hit the area of Lillatro and Palazzoni in Rosignano Solvay (Livorno). Seven houses, several cars and some structures, including the tensioned structure and the restaurant of the Circolo Canottieri Solvay, suffered serious damage, with roads blocked by falling pine trees (in addition to the streets in the area, Via Aurelia was closed in the southbound direction ). Two of the injured are more serious: a tennis teacher and a student, due to the collapse of the tensile structure of Canottieri, suffered multiple injuries and were transferred to the Livorno hospital. A third injured minor was taken to the Cecina hospital.

Powerful. There were about 40 interventions that the firefighters carried out from yesterday afternoon until this morning, throughout the province of Potenza, due to the bad weather that has been affecting the Lucan territory for about 24 hours, with strong wind and sometimes heavy rain. Firefighters intervened due to flooding, trees felled from roads, roofs and billboards torn away.
Gioia Taurus. Rain and wind even in Calabria. Gioia Tauro was hit last night by a tornado that overturned the containers deposited on the docks of the port. The wind has also damaged roofs, uprooted trees and ripped off billboards. According to Mayor Aldo Alessio, who is conducting a reconnaissance in the city, there is no harm to people. Since yesterday, the orange alert has been in force in much of the territory of Calabria.
Fallen trees in Fiumicino. Fallen or unsafe trees and poles and night of interventions throughout the territory of Fiumicino due mainly to the strong wind, which also touched 90 kilometers per hour on the Roman coast. The gaze also focused on the strong storm in progress. “It was above all the wind that created problems in the city between yesterday afternoon and last night, compromising our patrols and Civil Protection until 3 in the morning,” says the commander of the Fiumicino Local Police, Lucía Franchini. “Despite the orange meteorological alert for rain, there were no particular floods – explains the commander – while we had to intervene on several roads due to fallen trees and unsafe posts”.
The most important interventions were in via Salvatore Cammisa, in Isola Sacra, where a 10 meter high telecommunications pole swayed dangerously threatening the surrounding houses. To make it safe, a team of telecommunications technicians was required. Various branches and trees have fallen throughout the area. In via delle Tamerici, in Maccarese, a tree fell on a car without, fortunately, causing damage to the driver. Also in via Formoso three trees were felled by the strong wind, while via Moschini had to be closed due to unsafe poplars, one of which fell more than 10 meters. Another tree fell in the Focene area. “From the early hours of the morning the situation seems calmer, but our patrols continue to monitor to intervene immediately in case of criticality – concludes the commander -. I thank Civil Protection whose support was invaluable in managing the situation.
Rome, tree falls in Trastevere. The interventions of the Fire Brigade related to bad weather continue. Tonight, around 2.30, a tall tree fell in the Trastevere district on Via Dandolo 72. There is no participation of people. In addition to the competent 7A team, the Autoscala 1A and the AG10 mobile crane stepped in to remove the imposing size of the plant. Traffic temporarily closed to traffic.
Ischia and Procida: isolated. Due to the strong wind that reached peaks of 45 knots throughout the night in the Gulf of Naples, Ischia and Procida are currently almost isolated, with boats and hydrofoils moored in ports. Shortly after 9 a.m. from Ischia, the first ship of the day left for Pozzuoli, but shipping companies are currently not confirming any more departure or arrival connections. Therefore, the supply vehicles are also stopped on the mainland and the uncertainty for the many tourists who had planned the restart of the green island for today.
Snow the curtain. A taste of winter in the Veneto mountains, with the snow that made its appearance in Cortina last night and more consistently in the passes of the Dolomites. A few centimeters thick in the steps, like Falzarego’s, and a subzero thermometer. The peaks of the Ampezzo valley appear all white, as a result of the cold eruption that accompanied yesterday’s bad weather in Veneto. Even in the cities of the plains, the temperature change was abrupt: the minimum fell close to 10 degrees, making it the first cold episode of the new season. Real cold instead in the mountains: Cortina registered 2 degrees, values of 4-5 degrees below zero in altitude. No snow, but heavy hail on the Asiago plateau. The ranchers – Coldirett explains – were not left to be disconcerted by the fall, and in the mountainous areas where the snow arrived today they had already foreseen the transhumance of the cattle in time, releasing the cabins and returning to the farms.
Parma. The wind was enemy number one in the province of Parma in the last meteorological alert reported by Civil Protection. The precipitations were not violent in nature, although the first snowfalls fell overnight on the Apennine passes: about two inches above 900 meters. Throughout the province, however, the Fire Department and municipal administration technicians had to intervene for dozens of broken branches but also for several trees that fell to the ground. The most serious episode in the park of the Citadel of Parma where a large plant fell in a meadow without hitting people or things luckily.
Palermo, rain and strong wind. First the flames fed by the sirocco wind and then in the morning rain and strong wind. It was a busy night for the firefighters of the Palermo provincial command. Last night, due to the hot wind, numerous fires developed in Carini, Altavilla Milicia, Giardinello, Partinico, Villagrazia di Carini and San Martino delle Scale. The flames were also extinguished thanks to the rains. During the night the strong wind also caused the fall of some branches in different districts of Palermo. Yesterday Civil Protection issued a yellow alert for hydrogeological risk until midnight today and the Municipality of Palermo ordered the closure of gardens and municipal villas. Storm winds of more than 70 kilometers per hour are expected. Also suspended in the morning, due to uncertain weather conditions, the event ‘Una marina di librì in the Botanical Garden of Palermo.
