Sardinia at the mercy of heavy rains and storms, with the orange weather alert that has already put the Island on guard since yesterday. Hence the decision of the metropolitan mayor Massimo Zedda to close all schools, the university, parks and cemeteries. "For the moment we have no reports of significant critical issues, except for some infiltration due to the rain of the last few hours", the Fire Brigade of the provincial command center of Cagliari reported. The situation is therefore under control, for now. Even if among the many who have remained at home there are those who complain of excessive caution on the part of the city authorities.
Following Zedda's decision, many mayors of the metropolitan city have joined by signing the ordinances, except those of Villa San Pietro, Quartu Sant'Elena and Selargius. Here the students still went to class, even if many have decided to stay home to avoid the worst and avoid problems and inconveniences.
The announcement of the school closures arrived yesterday afternoon, during the opening of the works of the Cagliari City Council . In the evening, the Coc, the Municipal Operations Center for Civil Protection, met, where there are, among others, the Civil Protection and the Red Cross, which decided on the other measures. The University of Cagliari has therefore suspended all activities, including the discussions of the degrees.
The alert remains high in Pirri, where the closure of the Terramaini swimming pool has been ordered. In the event of flooding, the plan also includes traffic closures and the impossibility of entering the municipality's territory.
