November’s End and December’s Cold Front

The last week of November will open with an improvement in weather conditions, but it will only be a temporary phase. December, according to forecasts, will indeed start with bad weather and a new cold wave. Let’s see the weather for the week from November 25 to December 1.

Anticyclone

On Monday, November 25, according to /, a vast area of high pressure (partly of African origin) will expand over the central-western Mediterranean basin, blocking the Atlantic disturbance or other cold air incursions descending from the North Pole. It would be an extratropical cyclone over the North Atlantic, which will change the atmospheric circulation across Europe. Temperatures are expected to rise, potentially exceeding climatic averages, especially during the central hours of the day in much of Italy. The mild and stable phase could characterize the next week, except for some expected precipitation in the North during Tuesday, November 26.

British Cyclone

Southwestern currents, writes 3B Meteo, will be drawn from the low North African latitudes and carried towards the Baltic, Scandinavia, and Russia, bringing mild weather practically everywhere. The Anglo-Saxon cyclone will have a significant impact with winds and precipitation on the western sector. In the Mediterranean, there will be an anticyclonic resurgence that will bring more stable weather to Italy already during the weekend.

Bad Weather

Cold and unstable currents from Northern Europe could reach our Peninsula at the end of the week, opening a gap in the anticyclonic field. Therefore, rain and snowfall could return to Italy. There are few doubts at least until Thursday, while the situation will be more uncertain over the weekend. The clusters, the so-called probabilistic forecasts, give some importance to a possible cold retrogression from Eastern Europe towards the Peninsula. Currently, the chances that a continental eastern flow could reach Italy are around 50%, alternatively, unstable Atlantic infiltrations could bring more significant rains from the west.
