Bad weather Sicily, ‘quiet’ night in Catania

Bad weather in Sicily, a night spent in Catania without criticality. The much feared hurricane renamed ‘Apollo’ that formed in the Ionian has not created any damage at the moment. It rains in the Catania area but not intensely. The city, like yesterday, is practically deserted. No damage was reported to people or things by the Sicilian Civil Protection Operations Room which is open in San Giovanni la Punta, in the Catania area, and continues to monitor the situation. Read also Strong thunderstorms and pouring rain have instead registered and continue to fall especially in the Syracusano and Ragusa areas. But no particular damage has been recorded except the closure to traffic along the Statale 114 in the Priolo Gargallo area, in the province of Arezzo. For the moment, in short, the island seems to be spared by the ‘renamed’ Apollo. But the red alert continues. Until midnight today.
