(ANSA) – ROME, FEB 2 – Italy will get a brief taste of spring
next weekend thanks to warmer air from Africa coming in over the
next few days, forecasters said Tuesday.
But it will be abruptly ended by wintry weather blowing in from
Russia from Monday onwards, they said.
“Over the next few days, and into the coming weekend, the
advance of a sub-tropical anticyclone will cause a gradual, but
constant increase in temperatures,” said Ilmeteo.it.
“The top temps will reach peaks above 22 degrees, thus
anticipating the coming of spring.
“But after Monday February 8 the weather scenario will change
radically, with the opening of a new, decidedly wintry phase
which could engulf the whole country”. (ANSA).
