According to the latest bulletin on heat waves released by the Ministry of Health, Saturday will mark a slight respite with the alert level dropping in much of the country. Only ten cities will remain under observation with the yellow dot, a warning that indicates weather conditions that, while not representing an immediate danger to health, may require attention especially for the most vulnerable segments of the population.
Tomorrow, however, a new peak of heat is expected with the orange warning for three urban centers: Rome, Bolzano and Brescia.
