African heat does not give up, but strong thunderstorms are coming: here is where

A new outbreak of the African anticyclone is imminent, which will bring maximum temperatures back to over 40 ° C in the South and close to them in the Center-North. The team of the site www.iLMeteo.it informs that from Wednesday to Friday the hot air arriving from the Sahara desert will cause the temperatures to rise higher and higher. Suffice it to say that in the North the maximum values ​​will reach peaks of 36-37 ° C in Emilia (Bologna, Ferrara, Forlì), in Lombardy (Mantua), in Veneto (Rovigo, Verona), up to 39 ° C in the Center on the Marche ( Macerata and Ascoli Piceno), 36-37 on Tuscany and Lazio (Rome and Florence) and up to 41-42 ° C in the South as in Puglia and Basilicata (Foggia, Taranto, Matera) and on the Major Islands (Syracuse, Catania, Sanluri ). In addition to the great heat, however, we will have to deal with the development of strong thunderstorms that until Wednesday will mainly affect the western Alps (Val d’Aosta, province of Biella, Verbano-Cusio-Ossola and reliefs of the Turin area, locally also those of Lombardy) , then on Thursday they will be able to break through to the Piedmont and Lombardy plains as in Milan and Turin. Together with thunderstorms, the risk of hailstorms and sudden gusts of wind will be high. IN DETAIL Tuesday 6. In the north: thunderstorms in the western Alps, sun elsewhere. Center: sunny. In the south: good weather prevailing. Wednesday 7. In the north: usual thunderstorms over the western Alps. In the center: sun and heat. In the south: sunny and gradually warmer. Thursday 8.
