As the 3Bmeteo.it meteorologists announced in the last hours, the snow has also reached Turin. A few centimeters that immediately change the face of the city. This morning, Monday December 28, in fact, the capital of Savoy woke up under a thin but palpable layer of white. The salt spreaders are active from the early hours of the morning, the roads are clean and there are no particularly critical situations, although for now it is still snowing. The polar vortex, as predicted by experts, reached northern Italy as early as Sunday night, bringing heavy snowfall in some areas. And Piedmont was not spared: in the plains the accumulations fell from 5 (Turin) to 15 cm (in the Alessandria area), while in the mountains up to one meter of snow is expected.
Interruption on roads and railways
The first Trenitalia cancellations arrive on the Piedmont motorways and also on the railway: 38 trains to Liguria have been suspended, as well as some direct trains from Milan to the Piedmont capital.
Forecasts
The phenomena will tend to fade in the evening with the return of frozen fogs and the drop in temperatures to maximum values. In fact, polar temperatures will be perceived, typically in winter. On the plane, thermometer with lows around -3 / 0 ° C, highs around 0/2 ° C. On Tuesday, there will be abundant spells in the plains despite some fog banks at night and early in the morning will decrease. Greater variability, however, in alpine areas with some scales on the borders with France.
And the weather will remain unstable until New Year’s Eve: the cold air that will continue to flow from northern Europe to the Mediterranean will bring more rain and snow. Certainly in the Alps, but other precipitation is not excluded even in the plains.
