  • Italy will see its first well-organized Atlantic disturbance from Wednesday, bringing thunderstorms and a general temperature drop of 6 to 8 degrees Celsius.
  • Temperatures could reach 34 to 36°C before the shift, then fall to around 26 to 27°C as storms spread from the north to central and southern regions.
  • Locally intense storms and hail are possible in parts of Liguria, the Triveneto, Tuscany and Lazio.

Summer is set for a decisive setback from Wednesday, when the first well-organized Atlantic disturbance is expected to bring thunderstorms and a marked fall in temperatures across Italy.

The change will follow two more hot days. Maximum temperatures could reach 34 to 36°C in several regions on Monday and Tuesday, although the first signs of instability will appear as early as Tuesday, with showers near mountain areas and in the far north.

The weather front will enter the north on Wednesday before moving into central and southern Italy between Thursday and Friday. Cloud cover and thunderstorms will push daytime highs down to 26 or 27°C, with temperatures dropping by 6 to 8 degrees across most of the country.

The available energy could fuel locally severe storms, with hail particularly possible in eastern Liguria, the Triveneto, Tuscany and Lazio. The instability is then expected to move south. Meteorologist Federico Brescia of iLMeteo.it said, “However, the first signs of change will already be seen tomorrow, with showers near the mountains and in the far north.”
