The African anticyclone is ready to trigger a new and intense heat wave towards southern Italy which will also involve Sicily in the next few days. The weather will remain substantially stable during the week, with mostly clear skies. Temperatures will increase day after day and will reach increasingly higher values, with the peak of the heat expected between Thursday and Saturday, when the weather gets muggy. In fact, at night the minimum temperatures will not fall below 24/26°C and will be locally higher. During the day the climate will become fiery and maximum values may reach and at times exceed 40°C inland, cooler instead along the coast, mitigated by the sea surface. In particular Maximum temperatures of up to 34°C are expected in Palermo, 37/39°C in Agrigento, 36/37°C in Catania, 34/35°C in Messina. By the end of next week this intense African heat wave could finally stop, due to the entry of cooler currents from the northern quadrants which would progressively reduce temperatures.
