Storms Expected to Break Record-Setting Heatwave in Ital

Temperatures across Italy will be impacted by a "thermal collapse" created by weather systems from northern #Europe.

The scorching heatwave and drought that have gripped much of Italy this summer are set to give way to rain, hail and flood warnings over the weekend.

Italy has seen record temperatures in multiple cities this summer, resulting in widespread "red alerts" that signify health risks even for young and healthy individuals.

The heat and dry weather have resulted in many #wildfires, and the erosion of the country's #glaciers. According to #Italy's main agriculture union Coldiretti, these conditions have cost Italian farmers at least 6 billion euros in damage to crops.
