Weather, urgent statement: Super cyclonic cell arriving, that's where

The meteorological team launches thered alert while one cyclonic supercell self-regenerating is preparing to hit Liguria, Lombardy, Milan and beyond. This exceptional training is closely linked to Storm Ciaran, and could lead to devastating floods. The precision of the forecasts indicates that Thursday 2 November will see the formation of these supercells coming from the Ligurian Sea and approaching Liguria, Lombardy and the Triveneto.

Cyclonic supercell, climate change and possible consequences

This extreme event is a direct consequence of climate changes in progress, and the computer centers underline its superior intensity, warning about the possible hydrogeological consequences. In addition to the intense rainfall, the wind will suddenly increase in intensity, with stormy gusts that could exceed 90 km/h on the Tyrrhenian and upper Adriatic coasts.

Precipitation will be heavy in Liguria, Lombardy, Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia, with a high risk of storms. The disturbance will also lead to a lowering of the snow level in the Alps, with snow expected up to 1400 meters in Alto Adige and Val d'Aosta.

The bad weather will slowly move eastwards, bringing the last rainfall to the Triveneto and the Tyrrhenian power plants up to Campania. Over the weekend, another disturbance with a similar trajectory will bring further rainfall to Northern Italy, but signs of improvement will be seen by Sunday evening, bringing an end to this turbulent period.

What is Storm Ciaran

Storm Ciaran is a weather system that can bring severe weather conditions, including strong winds and heavy rainfall. It is important to note that the name “Ciaran” is one of the names assigned to storms under a storm naming system used in some regions, particularly in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

This storm naming system helps improve communication and public awareness regarding meteorological risks. The name “Ciaran” is specific to a certain period and geographical area and can vary from one region to another. Storms like Ciaran can bring strong winds, heavy rains and other adverse weather effects, requiring monitoring and preparation by authorities and the affected public.
