Bad weather hits Lombardy. Since yesterday evening it has been raining with particular intensity in Milan and throughout Brianza and the Pre-Alps, and only in the late morning of today are the phenomena easing. The Seveso lamination tank was activated at 8.15 am and is now ready to welcome the flood of the river, already more than two thirds full. Meanwhile, the councilor for civil protection, Marco Granelli, announced that at 8.40 am the Lambro river – which had reached the alert threshold at 7.50 am – began to flood the park surrounding it where two communities are located, that of Don Mazzi and the Ceas, evacuated previously.
Heavy rain in Milan, where 35-40 millimeters of water have fallen since 3am. The Labro reached levels of 2.90 meters in Brugherio and 2.64 in via Feltre. Lambro park is slightly flooded. In Ponte Lambro via Umiliati was closed for an hour and a half and is now reopening. In Rilke and Vittorini, transit of public transport is always guaranteed. The Rubicone underpass was flooded.
Due to the bad weather warning, high schools and training centers will be closed today in Lecco. This was communicated by the Prefecture of the capital. Same situation in Bergamo and in some areas of Val Camonica. The Civil Protection councilor of the Municipality of Milan, Marco Granelli, once again complains about the presence of only one tank to contain the flooding of the Seveso river during waves of bad weather like the one that hit the city last night.
