Weather: Sunny and hot this weekend, with highs above 30 degrees Celsius. A risk of thunderstorms in the North. The forecast.

The first weekend di June will be marked by a general improvement in the time thanks to the return of high pressure, but with a still evident difference between the North and the Center-South. After the passage of the low pressure system that mainly affected the northern regions and partly the Center, the situation will tend to stabilize, although not everywhere decisively. Italy will in fact be divided between a Sunnier Central-Southern Italy and a North part still exposed to some phase volatile and unstable global landscape, especially in the Alpine and pre-Alpine areas.

Overall, the weekend will be characterised by a typical summer climate across much of the country, with temperature increasing and values ​​which in the South and on the Islands could even be quite high for the period.

Weekend Weather Forecast: Summer Heat Peaks in the South and Islands

Saturday June 6th It will be a sunny day, especially in central and southern Italy, where the weather will remain mostly stable with only a few passing clouds, especially in Tuscany, Umbria, Marche, and along the central Apennines, but without any consequences. In the north, the morning will be grayer, with widespread clouds and some rain between Piedmont and Lombardy, followed by an improvement in the afternoon. However, brief thunderstorms may develop in the central Alps—particularly between Trentino-Alto Adige and the Dolomites. All this in a context that is already fully summery, with intense heat in the south and Sicily and highs of up to 35°C in inland areas, while temperatures will remain more moderate in the north.

Sunday 7 June The weather will be more stable across Italy, with widespread sunshine and only a few cloudy patches in the afternoon over the mountains, where brief, isolated thunderstorms are possible between the Dolomites and Cadore, in a summery atmosphere nonetheless. Temperatures will rise in central and northern Italy and Sardinia, while in the south and Sicily they will experience a slight decline, though still remaining at summer levels: highs generally between 25 and 31 degrees Celsius, with peaks of 32-33 degrees Celsius in Calabria and the major islands. In Rome and Florence, temperatures will touch 30 degrees Celsius.

Weather forecast for the next few days: rising heat, but the North remains unstable.

The weather trend after the weekend confirms a progressive strengthening of high pressure over Italy, with increasingly stable and sunny conditions especially in the Central-South. Here the the climate will be typically summery, with temperatures rising further and possible peaks above 34-35 degrees Celsius in the South and the Islands in the coming days. A period of stability that will continue for at least ten days, especially in the central and southern regions.

Al Northern Italy, instead, will continue to resist a greater variability atmospheric, with the possibility of further unstable episodes, especially along the Alpine arc and in parts of the northeastern regions. However, these will be localized phenomena and not a widespread worsening, according to experts.
