Brescia is currently under a yellow alert for strong northern winds, particularly affecting mountainous areas. The alert, issued by the Civil Protection, indicates that gale-force gusts are expected to impact regions including Trentino-Alto Adige, Piedmont, Lombardy, Veneto, and Liguria. As the winds intensify, they will extend to Umbria, Lazio, Abruzzo, and Molise, especially in the Apennine sectors. The most intense phase of this weather event is anticipated between the evening of Monday, March 31, 2025, and the morning of Tuesday, April 1, 2025, with gusts potentially reaching 90-110 km/h on the reliefs.
Starting at 8 PM on Sunday, March 30, 2025, the Provincial Civil Protection of Trento issued the yellow alert for high-altitude gusts, particularly in the eastern sectors. These winds may cause gusts that could reach or exceed 70-90 km/h, with higher peaks expected in mountainous and exposed areas.
The strong winds could lead to increased fire risks, as evidenced by a fire that has already affected a large wooded area in Malonno, located in the high Vallecamonica since the evening of March 30, 2025. Local authorities are closely monitoring the situation as they anticipate that the winds may facilitate the spread of the flames.
In Rome, a weather alert has also been issued for Monday, March 31, 2025, due to strong northern winds with gale-force gusts, especially in mountainous sectors. The Civil Protection has warned that these conditions will persist for the following 18-24 hours, prompting a yellow alert across the region.
Experts from 3bMeteo predict that a cold impulse descending from Northern Europe will cause significant instability in Rome from March 31 to April 2, 2025. This weather pattern will likely bring rain and showers, alternating with dry and sunny periods. As temperatures drop, winds from the northeast are expected to strengthen.
On the same day, Rome will experience cloudy skies with light rain, which should clear up by late afternoon. Forecasts indicate that approximately 2mm of rain could fall in the coming hours.
In Lombardy, the situation remains precarious as a yellow alert has been declared for strong winds and a risk of fire. On March 31, 2025, the weather will be predominantly clear, with minimum temperatures ranging from 10 to 12°C and maximum temperatures between 18 and 20°C. Moderate winds are expected from the north, with locally intense gusts occurring overnight.
Looking ahead to Tuesday, April 1, 2025, increased cloud cover is anticipated, along with the possibility of local showers in the plains. Minimum temperatures are expected to drop between 6 and 8°C, while maximum temperatures will range from 16 to 18°C.
After enduring days of rain and bad weather, the sun has finally returned to Veneto. However, from the early hours of March 31 until the morning of April 1, 2025, strong winds from the northern quadrants are expected to intensify. The decentralized functional center of the Civil Protection of Veneto has issued a bulletin of attention for strong winds, which will remain in effect until the morning of April 1.
On March 31, the weather in Veneto will be stable and mostly clear or slightly cloudy, with some cloudiness over the northern Dolomites and local cloud development in the plains during the afternoon. While some snowflakes are possible in the northern Dolomites, precipitation is generally absent elsewhere. Temperatures are expected to decrease, particularly at altitude, while winds in the plains will be weak and variable, except for reinforcements from the northeast in the evening.
As for the sea conditions, it will be slightly choppy. On Tuesday, April 1, irregular clouds will alternate with clearings, especially in the afternoon, with no significant precipitation expected in the southern plains.
With the arrival of these strong winds and changing weather patterns, residents in affected areas are urged to remain vigilant and prepared for potential disruptions. The Civil Protection agencies across the regions are actively monitoring conditions and providing updates as necessary.
