Orange alert for the risk of thunderstorms, yellow for the hydrogeological risk: yet another weather alert for Lombardy and the province of Varese from the forecasts of the regional Civil Protection for the afternoon and evening of Saturday 15 June.
For today, June 15th, disturbed weather is expected until the evening, mainly in the North-West, the Central Pre-Alps and the Alpine belt, with less persistence in the Eastern Pre-Alps and the high western plain, with non-significant accumulations in the rest of the region.
During the afternoon, attenuating rainfall is expected, but with intensification of the convective part. Probable formation of a storm line on the western reliefs on the border with Piedmont, moving eastwards by the evening, insisting almost exclusively on the Pre-Alps and the related foothills.
An increase in the probability of intense phenomena is expected between late afternoon and evening, in particular a significant increase in probability will be possible, but in a localized area, between Lake Maggiore and Lake Como.
For tomorrow 16 June, residual precipitation scattered across the Alps and Pre-Alps will be possible during the night, even of moderate intensity in the central mountains, which is rapidly disappearing. In the afternoon, scattered showers or isolated thunderstorms are likely in the pre-Alpine area.
