«All the Alpine glaciers, at all altitudes, are above zero and the situation is quite critical».
Thus Claudio Tei, researcher and meteorologist of the Cnr and the Lamma Consortium, on the heat wave that is affecting central-northern Italy, due to a sub-tropical anticyclone, coming from Africa.
«The hottest days predicted by the models are Monday 21 and Tuesday 22 August with peaks of 38 degrees in some cities and more than 7 degrees above the average for this season, even 10 degrees above the seasonal values in the western Alps - explains Tei - while the freezing point at altitude is expected to reach 5,000 metres.
