WINTER COMES TO ITALY, FIRST COLD DISTURBANCE AT CHRISTMAS WITH STRONG WINDS AND THERMAL SHOULDER, SNOW ON THE HILLS – “The phase of relative meteorological calm these days is about to end, with winter ready to enter the Italian scene starting at Christmas.” This is confirmed by the meteorologist from 3bmeteo.com Edoardo Ferrara which explains: “Already during Christmas Eve we will see a gradual deterioration in the North and Tuscany with scattered rains. At Christmas there will be a first cold front decided from northern Europe, responsible for a past of rains, showers and storms in the northeast and in general in Centrosud, especially on the Tyrrhenian slope where we do not exclude phenomena of strong intensity. The Northwest this time will be on the brink of cyclonic action with sporadic rains and even bigger openings. All this will be accompanied by a sharp drop in temperatures from north to south, so much so that the snow will be able to rise to mountainous altitudes in the northeast, Emilia and, at the end of the day, also in Tuscany, Romagna and the Haute-Marche. Sometimes snow is not excluded on the plains of Emilian sectors. In Santo Stefano it was still raining, storms and even hail in Centrosud, with snow on the hills on the middle side of the Adriatic (200-500 m) and up to 1000 m in the south at the end of the day. Temporary improvement, on the other hand, in the northern regions and the middle side of the Tyrrhenian, but with a cold climate.

Also noteworthy is the wind, which will also blow strongly at the beginning of Libeccio and Ponente, after Maestrale, Tramontana and Grecale, with bora in the upper Adriatic, continues Ferrara from 3bmeteo.com, “gusts of more than 70-80km are expected / h in the Tyrrhenian Sea, Sardinia, Liguria and the upper Adriatic with storm surge and possible inconvenience “.

SECOND DISTURBANCE BETWEEN 27 AND 28, POSSIBLE SNOW ON THE NORTHERN PLAINS – “It will not end here” – warns the expert – “since a second and more intense cold disturbance will signal most of Europe from the Arctic latitudes, also affecting Italy. In this phase we will thus have a resurgence of bad weather: in the North, the presence of cold air can favor extensive snowfalls at very low altitudes if not on the plains, with a second important revision for the Alps, where more important contributions from snow. Meanwhile, showers and storms, even of strong intensity, will move towards the Centrosud, with snowfalls in the Apennines. All this once again accompanied by strong winds with swell ”. “The bad weather could also repeat itself on several occasions at least until the New Year 2021, with new disturbances in northern Europe responsible for more rain and snowfall in lower-middle altitudes” they conclude from 3bmeteo.com.
