The strong mistral wind, with gusts reaching nearly 100 kilometers per hour, contributed to a significant drop in temperatures.

The coldest area was Desulo Perdu Arbas, which recorded -3. In Villanova Strisali the thermometer was -2.2. It was also cold in Fonni (-1.6), Bitti (-0.5), Gavoi (-0.4) and Tempio-Limbara (-0.3).
In Cagliari, a difference of more than degrees was recorded between two city stations: 4.9 in Pirri and 7.1 in Molentargius.
The town with the highest minimum, according to the remote sensing network, was Stintino, where the temperature did not fall below 11.9 degrees.
Weather conditions are expected to gradually improve from this evening. "Cloudy skies with isolated, light precipitation, mainly in the western sector, with easing phenomena," are expected. Winds will be moderate to strong from the northwest, but can reach gale force on the western coasts and ridges. Significant improvement is expected from tomorrow, Saturday, March 28th.
