The wave of frost and snow that is affecting all of Italy continues unabated, bringing the central-southern regions to their knees above all, hit by heavy snowfalls in recent days: even today, Monday 9 January, temperatures continue to remain low and below the average for the period in almost all of the peninsula. The Civil Protection still recommends not to travel in the affected areas, except in strictly necessary cases and only with snow tires or chains fitted, and in many areas of the South, especially in Puglia, schools have remained closed .
In the next few hours and days, temperatures should rise again, even if the weather forecasts indicate the arrival of a new perturbation in the short term, which will mainly affect the Adriatic coast and the southern regions, also signaling "the persistence of very low temperatures and strong winds" . See you yesterday cold casualties rose to eight. The first to pay the price for low temperatures were homeless people. To deal with the frost emergency, especially for the homeless, points of shelter for the night and refreshments have been organized in some cities.
