the African anticyclone will be felt for a few more days, especially in the South. On Thursday 24 August, afternoon and evening thunderstorms “are expected in the western Alps, upper Piedmont, Valle d’Aosta, occasionally upper Lombardy, especially eastern Trentino Alto Adige”, explains Carlo Migliore of 3Bmeteo.com.

Same situation for Friday 25 August, when in the North afternoon and evening thunderstorms will be possible between Valle d’Aosta, upper Piedmont, upper Lombardy and Alto Adige: “They should be isolated overall even if it is not excluded that locally they could be intense”, he explains the weatherman again.

On Saturday 26 August, isolated thunderstorms are arriving in the morning between medium/high Piedmont, Valle d’Aosta and upper Lombardy. Between the afternoon and evening, however, Migliore explains, they will be “more widespread and even stronger with possible storms and hailstorms between Piedmont and Lombardy, including the medium and high plain sectors”.

Finally Sunday 27 August, when – according to the latest modeling elaborations – showers will be possible from the morning “even of an intense nature and with the possibility of storms and hail in Piedmont and in the middle upper Lombardy”, concludes the expert of 3Bmeteo.com.
