More thunderstorms in this last weekend of May, a month characterized this year by a lot of rain that fell in Italy. However, to see some improvements – which will come – we will have to wait at least until next week and, perhaps, the beginning of June. These the weather forecast for today, Friday 24 Mayand for the next few days.
48 hours of downpours, what the expert says
Antonio Sanò, founder of the site www.iLMeteo.it, confirms that, gradually, the pressure will increase with a more decisive improvement from Sunday. In the next 48 hours we will still have frequent showers, especially in the afternoon, first in the North and then also in the Centre-South.
In detail, the next few hours will see the flowering of ‘cauliflowers’, those cauliflower-shaped clouds that are cumulonimbus: thunderstorms are expected from the morning in the North-East, some showers also in Liguria then from the afternoon, due to the increase of thermal instability, we will have patchy thunderstorms across much of the North. In the Centre-South, temperatures will increase slightly and the weather will be mostly stable; an increase in cloud cover is only expected close to the mountains in the hottest hours of the day. Highs will reach 30°C in the South, elsewhere they will be average for the period.
On Saturday a new unstable front will affect a large part of Italy: thunderstorms will hit the North in the morning and the Centre-South especially in the afternoon, but in short we will experience another capricious and treacherous day: we will go out with the sun and we will be surprised by the flowering of fast storms. Following the forecasts, the surprise will be smaller and better managed.
This month of May, among the wettest of the century, will try to bring other significant rains on its last Sunday, but it will not succeed: in the Centre-North, in fact, sunny spells will prevail and the weather will be good, except for isolated showers on the Adriatic side; in the South we will find a few more showers, especially in the afternoon near the Apennines, but here too the weather is expected to improve.
From next week, in fact, the anticyclone will be stronger: on Monday thunderstorms are expected only in the Alps and between Basilicata and Puglia, on Tuesday a little more scattered in the Centre-North and from Wednesday on the Adriatic coast. In other words, we will have a stronger anticyclone, but the spring instability will remain: this month of May has decided to break the record as the wettest and the hot, summery and dry weather will probably not arrive before June.
