Overview
- The weekend cyclone concentrated on Sardinia, Sicily and parts of the South with intense showers, thunderstorms and strong winds, with offshore waves in the Sardinia Channel reported up to 6–7 meters.
- A short improvement arrived on Sunday, as the Aeronautica Militare maintained yellow alerts in five regions and flagged rough seas and persistent winds over southern waters.
- From Monday a new perturbation is forecast to reach the Northwest first, with snow at low levels in Piedmont by evening and deteriorating conditions spreading east.
- Tuesday is expected to bring the peak of this phase with widespread heavy precipitation across the Centre–North, significant snowfall on the Alps, and higher rain totals in Liguria, Tuscany and the Triveneto.
- Showers are projected to extend to the Centre–South from midweek, with some outlets indicating a second low later in the week and differing views on Apennine snow thresholds, prompting calls to follow official updates.
