Nord Italia, attenzione. Dalla siccità ai temporali forti il passo sarà molto breve. Già domani una giornata da tenere d'occhio. Nei prossimi giorni il Nord Italia riceverà finalmente piogge importanti, ma bisogna raccontare bene che tipo di pioggia rischia di arrivare. Non parliamo di una pioggia tranquilla, continua e ben distribuita, quella che dopo settimane secche sarebbe la più utile per suoli, fiumi, agricoltura e falde. Il segnale modellistico mostra invece una fase più instabile e perturbata, con accumuli anche abbondanti soprattutto tra Alpi, Prealpi, alte pianure e settori esposti del Nord-Ovest e del Nord-Est. Localmente, dove i fenomeni insisteranno di più, gli accumuli potranno raggiungere anche 120-150 mm. Questo significa che potremo passare in pochi giorni da una condizione siccitosa a rovesci e temporali localmente molto intensi. Quando il terreno è secco, duro e stressato da settimane di caldo, non tutta l’acqua riesce a entrare subito nel suolo. Una parte può scorrere rapidamente in superficie, aumentando il rischio di allagamenti improvvisi, grandinate, colpi di vento e criticità locali. Il Nord ha bisogno di acqua, ma avrebbe bisogno soprattutto di piogge regolari, distribuite e assorbibili. Se invece arriva sotto forma di temporali violenti e concentrati, può aiutare il bilancio idrico solo in parte e creare problemi dove i fenomeni colpiscono con maggiore forza. Le precipitazioni arriveranno già nella giornata di domani e stasera analizzerò la situazione in un successivo post che vi consiglio di seguire con attenzione. #NordItalia #Meteo #Maltempo
