The Arpav, the regional agency for the prevention and environmental protection of Veneto, estimates in a bulletin for today «the prevalence of bright spells until morning, then from dawn or from the central hours plus cloudiness with moderate variability / instability ». In the case of rainfall, “probability that increases to medium-low (25-50%) in the central-western areas, and up to 60-80% in the central-eastern areas, from the afternoon hours of scattered rains, locally with downpour or storm “. The temperature in general decreased, with highs below the averages for the period. Finally, the Winds will be “weak variables, with some moderate east-northeast reinforcement in the middle hours.”
In the meantime. Verona awaits the passage of the flood of the Adige river that should take place between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.. As a precaution, Civil Protection and Civil Engineering have installed bulkheads in the Customs area, in the historic center, the lowest point in the river’s passage to the city. The two entities are in contact with the Region to follow the evolution of the situation, which at the moment does not show criticality. Follow-up by volunteers continues along the banks; The river carries hundreds of tree trunks felled by the strong wind these days and it is necessary to control that they do not pile up on the bridges, obstructing the flow of water.
Last night at the Rubele Lungadige station the registered level was almost one meter above the hydrometric zero. The level of the river in the last 48 hours has risen 3 meters in the Veronese section.
Roberto Brizzi, Mayor of Bussolengo, has decided to close the Settimo di Pescantina and Arcè bridges. Civil Protection has issued a new meteorological bulletin: hydraulic orange alert for the Adige, Garda and Lessinia basins.
