TYPICALLY SPRING WEEKEND
Friends of RIWMAG and METEOEVENTI welcome back. The new month of May has begun and spring is felt, interrupting the long period of drought that has gripped many of our regions for months.
The weekend just around the corner promises to be a typical spring weekend, where there will be no lack of wind on many of our coasts, but it will also be accompanied by disturbed weather with rains and thunderstorms.
In fact, Saturday a disturbance will station on the central Mediterranean, with action center positioned on the southern regions of our peninsula and its action will continue, albeit with less vigor, also on the following day of Sunday.
The presence of the minimum pressure on the ground in southern Italy will favor a good pressure gradient on our seas and in particular right south of the "Bel Paese", so wind, but also disturbed weather.
Pressure (Geopotential Height Black isoline) temperature (in color) scheduled for the night between Saturday and Sunday. A structured low pressure center at all altitudes will station over southern Italy for the entire weekend (source ECMWF www.ecmwf.int and elaborated by METEOEVENTI).
We identify where we will have more chances of wind and above all where the weather will be more lenient for our glides.
SATURDAY
north Tyrrhenian sector: the Tramontana will blow on the 18/20 knots between Genoese and Savona and, during the morning, will perform the typical rotation from east-northeast on the coasts of western Liguria;
Adriatic sector: nothing to report.
About Great Lakes the day will pass in the name of atmospheric variability with also showers and thunderstorms and this will not favor the genesis of the typical lake thermal winds.
center Tyrrhenian side: to report a ventilation from the North in Livorno with average intensity on 15/18 nodes in a meteorological context of great variability;
Adriatic side: nothing to report.
south Adriatic side: little windy the Adriatic coasts of southern Italy. We will have some opportunity for more wind on the Gargano for winds from the East, but with disturbed weather;
Ionic side: decidedly more in the name of atmospheric instability the Ionian coasts for the proximity to the minimum of low pressure. In this context of instability, the Coasts of Crotone and Cosenza will be under a ventilation from the East on average on the 20/22 nodes;
Tyrrhenian side: unstable even on the Tyrrhenian side of southern Italy with winds from the East to 20/22 knots in particular on cosentino and catanzarese.
The spots overlooking the Strait will not exempt themselves from atmospheric instability for winds from the East.
islands Sardinia: bad weather day with rain and thunderstorms. To the north of the island the atmospheric instability will be less pronounced and we will have a ventilation from the north on the Gallura up to 20/22 nodes. During the afternoon there will be some lightening on the coasts of the sardinian east with an associated ventilation of Tramontana on the 18/20 nodes;
Sicily: atmospheric instability will also affect the Sicilian coasts, those closest to the centre of action of the disturbance on the Mediterranean. Day, Therefore, in the name of bad weather although windy to the south of the island for moderate westerly winds.
SUNDAY
north Tyrrhenian side: still activates the Tramontana on the 18/20 knots between Genoese and Savona, but it will hardly be able to make the rotation from the eastern quadrants on the Ligurian West. Waiting for a day of atmospheric variability;
Adriatic side: a weak ventilation from the Northeast will blow between the Trieste area and the Venice lagoon, but with intensity not exceeding 12/15 nodes.
About degree lakes the the day will again be characterized by atmospheric variability with showers and thunderstorms that will not favor the triggering of thermal.
center the central coasts of the peninsula will be not very windy.
south Adriatic side: nothing to report;
Ionic side: the windiest coasts will be those of Crotonese for winds from the quadrants of Levante, but right there we will again have a day of atmospheric instability;
Tyrrhenian side: the Levant will blow on the 15/18 knots on the coasts of Cosentino where atmospheric instability will be less pronounced. This ventilation will be attenuated during the afternoon.
islands Sardinia: expected Winds of Levante to the north of the Island that, with average intensity on 15/18 nodes, will move, in the morning, from the Strait of Bonifacio to Asinara;
Sicily: the Trinacria will remain under the action of the minimum of low pressure that will cause a day of bad weather with rain and thunderstorms. In the afternoon we can find some greater chance between Trapani and Agrigento for the arrival of Mistral winds on the 15/18 nodes.
MAY THE WIND BE WITH YOU! Stay tuned with METEOEVENTI
