Also in Liguria Arpal has extended the yellow weather alert for thunderstorms until 2pm on Tuesday on the regional Central-Levant, where instability is expected to continue until mid-day
Already on Tuesday, however, the sixth African heat wave arrives on Italy with a more decisive interest in the Center-South: we will again touch values close to 37-38 ° C but with a higher humidity rate. At the moment – explains Mattia Gussoni, meteorologist of the site www.iLMeteo.it – the duration of this sixth wave seems rather shortwith the return to less suffocating temperatures already on the weekend 20-21 August.
Since May 10, there have already been five waves of marine heat that have caused a dizzying increase in temperatures in the Mediterranean with values of even 5-6 ° C above average: the Mare Nostrum has warmed up to 29-30 ° C, as the Caribbean Sea or the Red Sea.
