Confirmed on drastic change of scenery for next week due to the progressive comeback of a powerful player in the central Mediterranean anticyclonic promontory of African origin. Temperatures will rise from Monday but the peak will be reached between Wednesday and Friday when the threshold of 40°C may be exceeded in some regions. The heat should persist albeit with less intense tones at least until the weekend. So let’s see what awaits us:
TEMPERATURES MONDAY: few variations in the North and Center with a slight local increase, slight increase also in the South with peaks of 36/37°C in Sicily.
