The African anticyclone spreads across Italy and will bring sunshine and higher temperatures than in recent days, in the North it could reach 30°C, in Sardinia up to 28-29°C are expected on Friday and Saturday.

For the next few hours, good weather is expected in the Centre-South and, from the weekend, also in Liguria, the Alps and the Pre-Alps, where there are currently some cloudy passages. Only in Liguria, both today and tomorrow, will the cloud cover also bring some local drizzle. Over the weekend, however, the sun will be dominant everywhere: the only negative note is the record increase in temperatures in the mountains with the freezing point rising above 4200 metres, increasing the risk of avalanches.

From a thermal point of view, explains Andrea Garbinato of iLMeteo.it, «we will record extreme peaks of 30°C from North to South. On average the maximums will still be around 24-26°C, but especially in the southern regions, in Emilia, Trentino Alto Adige, the Alpine valley bottoms of Lombardy and inland areas of Tuscany, the strong solar heating in April will favor an early summer".
