Italy divided in two, the Tyrrhenian side sunny and the Adriatic cloudy

Italy divided in two with the Tyrrhenian side sunny and the Adriatic side cloudy. This is what Lorenzo Tedici, meteorologist responsible for media at iLMeteo.it, announces.

"After a mostly sunny and dry Thursday across the country - he states - tomorrow and Saturday north-east winds with gusts of up to 40-50 km/h will affect the Adriatic side. The sea will be very rough with waves between 1.5 and 2.5 metres".

Isolated rainfall expected between Marche, Abruzzo, Molise, Puglia, Basilicata, Calabria, eastern Sicily and locally eastern Sardinia. Finally, humid currents will favor cloud banks in the early morning over the North-West. The rest of Italy will have good weather.

On Sunday 1 November a new cold front will determine a further temperature decrease of 1-2°C and a more compact accumulation of cloud cover over the central Apennines, where the first snowfalls will be recorded around altitudes of 1200-1300 metres. From the evening there will be a further accentuation of instability with rain across much of the South.

Finally, with the start of the new week, a further cold influx and widespread instability is expected in the Centre-South. Temperatures will drop by another 2-3°C. Possible snowfall in the central-northern and locally southern Apennines at altitudes between 1200 and 1500 metres.
