An orange alert has been issued for the areas of the capital and the Ionian coast, while the Tyrrhenian coast will be on yellow alert. The regional Department of Civil Protection has issued a warning for hydrogeological and hydraulic risk, valid for today. The expected storms did not arrive and at times during yesterday the sun also came out, but the risk of storms remains. The weather alert for eastern Sicily drops from red to orange, as established in the bulletin issued by the regional civil protection.
The alarm phase has moved to pre-alarm and will remain so on the eastern part of the island, including the Ionian sidethroughout the day today. Although the situation should theoretically improve, the warning for the meteorological-hydrogeological and hydraulic risk foresees the persistence of scattered to widespread precipitation, with a prevalent downpour or thunderstorm character, with a persistence character in the eastern sectors.
