Even this year Easter Monday seems to be synonymous with Maltempo, at least for some regions, while Easter promises to be more stable and serene. But what does the picture look like? weather for this weekend? Italy finds itself split into two contrasting climate scenarios: al South, a wave of unexpected heat it will cause the thermometer to soar to 33°C between Easter and Easter Monday; while al North part phases await us unstable with rains alternating with sunny spells, maintaining a cooler climate with highs around 15-18°C in the plains.
What will the weather be like at the weekend? Easter Monday at risk
Weather experts tell us that the dividing line between the climate virtually autumnal and that Summer it will be traced more or less along Lower Tuscany, Umbria and the Marche. To the north of this "imaginary line" (which goes from Livorno to Ancona) there will be scattered showers, while in the south there will be a milder and sunnier climate, with temperatures oscillating between 22-25°C and peaks above 30° C in Sicily, Calabria and Puglia.
Since Friday, the African anticyclone has decided to make its appearance, moving towards the Balkans and some parts of Italy, bringing stability to the southern and Adriatic regions, while the North-West and the Alps have had to deal with some showers and harsh winds. Also today, Saturday March 30, will be characterized by moments of uncertainty in the north-western regions, with rain that will extend to Upper Tuscany in the evening. On the contrary, in the South, in the North-East and along the Adriatic there will be a more clement and sunny climate, albeit with a still strong wind.
For the Holy Easter, Sunday 31 March, the forecast indicates showers in the morning in Liguria, the Alps and Triveneto, with some showers also in Upper Tuscany and the rest of the North-West. In the afternoon, the rains will move to the Alps and Triveneto, while south of the Livorno-Ancona line the weather will be mainly dry, sunny and rather warm for this season. For the Easter Monday, on Monday 1st April, the situation will be similar with showers in the Centre-North, and possible rain also in Lazio and Sardinia, alternating with clear spells in the afternoon.
In short, Italy finds itself divided between a South that plunges into summer and a North that dances between rains and clear spells.
