But let’s go in order. Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th April they will be two stable days, substantially dominated by a field of high pressure of sub-tropical origin that will be able to guarantee the Sun a bit everywhere and above all temperatures well above average: as an example, on Sicily and Sardinia you can touch on 28-30°C during the afternoon hours, as in Tuscany.
But don’t be fooled, it will only be a respite from the bad weather: indeed, a profound cyclone Atlantic positioned between the British Isles and the Iberian Peninsula, will send a first storm front which will make the weather worse precisely in conjunction with the First of May; there Workers Day will therefore see a high risk of thunderstorms, especially in the Centre-North and, due to the strong contrasts between different air masses, the phenomena could be locally intense and hailstorms. As has already happened in the recent past, Italy risks finding itself in a sort of “convergence zone” in which cool and unstable currents interact on one side and hot flashes on the other.
The weather and climate trend of this Spring therefore continues, in which unseasonal heat waves are followed by markedly unstable and stormy phases; at the moment, in fact, there is no stable atmospheric figure capable of dominating the Mediterranean basin.
