It was usually renowned for being one of the coldest peninsular regions in Italy. For a few years now, however, Abruzzo has been in the news for its record-breaking heat which it manages to achieve with incredible ease.
Proof of this is the 41.2°C in Castiglione a Casauria, the 39.8°C in Bussi sul Tirino and, listen, listen, the 39.6°C in L’Aquila Monticchio.
All values reported today and kindly made available to us by the L’Aquila Caput Frigors metro association (the Frigors quote is impressive in this regard).
The data just cited may seem incredible but precisely because these surges have been occurring with an alarming frequency for several years now, we can safely say that they are almost following a sort of unnatural normality.
One wonders what would happen if such a situation were to arise in full heat?
Many, fortunately few, did not believe the words of Meteorologist Stefano Bernardi who had predicted their materialization for weeks. Now, however, skeptics will have to think again.
Fortunately, Bernardi himself has repeatedly underlined the fact that these heat waves take place in a dynamic circulatory context.
This means that today’s heat will have lasting hours and who knows that by Sunday, as announced by Bernardi himself, we will see it placed in the album of memories.
