Il Tempo: "Quando arriva la primavera". MeteoGiuliacci: temperature in aumento

Le ultime ore di maltempo stanno per concludersi: nei prossimi giorni arriveranno cieli sereni e temperature tipicamente primaverili, ideali anche per le festività pasquali. Tuttavia il contrasto tra masse d'aria diverse manterrà un certo rischio di temporali e grandinate. Dal fine settimana l'alta pressione si espanderà sull'Italia, rafforzandosi ulteriormente da martedì 7 aprile: le temperature saliranno fino a 24-25°C in molte zone, con valori superiori alla media stagionale di circa 5-6°C.

Secondo meteogiuliacci.it, questo primo caldo potrebbe scontrarsi con correnti fresche e instabili provenienti dall'Atlantico. Di conseguenza, da giovedì 9 aprile aumenterà la possibilità di temporali intensi, accompagnati da forti raffiche di vento e grandinate, soprattutto al Nord e in alcune regioni del Centro come Toscana e Lazio.

“When Spring Arrives”. MeteoGiuliacci: temperatures rising.

The latest hours of bad weather are about to end: in the coming days, clear skies and typically springtime temperatures will arrive, ideal even for Easter festivities. However, the contrast between different air masses will maintain a certain risk of thunderstorms and hail. From the weekend, high pressure will expand over Italy, strengthening further from Tuesday, April 7th: temperatures will rise to 24-25°C in many areas, with values above the seasonal average by 5-6°C.

According to meteogiuliacci.it, this first heat could clash with cold and unstable currents from the Atlantic. Consequently, starting from Thursday, April 9th, the possibility of intense thunderstorms will increase, accompanied by strong gusts of wind and hail, especially in the North and in some regions of the Center such as Tuscany and Lazio.

MeteoGiuliacci, temperature in aumento: "Quando arriva la primavera"

"The dragon-shaped prows had sailed the Tyrrhenian Sea, bringing the chill of the North to the vineyards and olive groves of Tuscany. Believing they had reached Rome, the Eternal City, the wolves of the North found themselves before the white walls of Luni."

Cit. Age of Wolf and Winds

"The Norman ships, sailing up the Mediterranean coast, appeared off the mouth of the Magra River, on the northern border of Tuscany. Here, the splendor of the Luni marbles deceived the Viking leaders. Seeing the white walls and temples of the ancient Roman colony from afar, they convinced themselves they had finally reached Rome, the capital of the Christian world they had vowed to sack."

Cit. I Vichinghi e l'Italia nel IX secolo

"According to the Norman chronicler Dudo of Saint Quentin, in 860 a fleet led by Björn Ironside and his tutor Hasting sacked several towns between the Iberian Peninsula and Tyrrhenian Italy, pushing as far as Luni, which the raiders conquered by deception after mistaking it for Rome."

In the 7th century, Pisa was not on the coast, but was a river port located a few kilometers from the sea.
Navigation between the river mouth and the city was constant.
The vessels of the time, derived from late Roman models, were piati (flat-bottomed boats) or small barges capable of sailing upstream.
Pisa served as a port of call for goods arriving from the Mediterranean (oil, spices, fine fabrics), which were transported on smaller boats to travel inland.
