STORYLINE:
The intense heatwave that has been gripping Italy began to break up in the northern part of the country on Monday. However, it has been replaced by thunderstorms and hail, complete with flood warnings, according to weather monitoring services.
According to IlMeteo.it, the weather will remain hot and dry in central and southern parts of the country, which have set new records for high temperatures in recent weeks.
However, the intensity of the heatwave will diminish slightly this week. By Wednesday, only two of Italy's 27 major cities will be under a "red alert," down from 16 on Monday, and more than 20 last week.
A "red alert" means that the heat can represent a health risk, even for young people with no health issues.
Starting Thursday, the weather will cool
