From Sunday still days in the sign of instability. In the North, heavily cloudy or overcast skies over most of the sector with weak scattered precipitations, more widespread and intense on Friuli Venezia-Giulia, where they will also take on a reversed nature; snow on the relative alpine and pre-Alpine areas above 800-1,000 meters. From the late morning, gradual improvement with absorption of rainfall starting from the western regions, pending a new worsening which will affect the westernmost alpine areas in the early hours of the night. After sunset, thick mist forms on the central-eastern Po Valley.

Central and Sardinia: many compact clouds over the Tyrrhenian regions, Umbria and the Apennine mountains of Marche and Abruzzo with scattered rains or showers, locally also storms close to the Apennine ridge; from the evening expected an attenuation of the phenomena on Sardinia and Tuscany. Thick glazes on the remaining areas of the Adriatic regions.

South and Sicily: substantial coverage over western Molise, Campania and Tyrrhenian Basilicata with weak associated phenomena expected from late morning; dry albeit with extensive medium-high cloudiness and stratified on the rest of the South, except for a few more compact clouds that will affect the Salento Puglia in the morning.

Monday 2 March : cloud cover spreading to the north and the central Tyrrhenian regions with extensive phenomena, also reversed or temporal, more intense over eastern Liguria and the Apuan Alps; moderate snowfall on alpine and pre-Alpine areas above 600-800 meters. Compact glazes on the rest of the country, with a tendency to worsen from the evening.

Tuesday 3 March : initial bad weather everywhere with widespread rains and showers, locally intense on the Tyrrhenian and Triveneto areas, but gradually improving in the morning first on the North-West and then, between afternoon and evening, also on Lombardy, Emilia and a large part the Center, especially the Tyrrhenian sector; intense and abundant snowfalls on the central eastern Alps, in nocturnal attenuation.

Wednesday 4 March: residual early morning rainfall on the north Adriatic coast, but following a rapid improvement; still many clouds in the south and on the central Adriatic regions with phenomena also of a reversed nature which have diminished since the evening; cloudy or veiled sky elsewhere, with more compact clouds in the evening over the western Alpine chain and Sardinia, where new rainfall is expected.

On Thursday 5 March still unstable conditions over most of the central and southern regions and the Alpine border areas, but improving in the afternoon on the central peninsular sector, while ever wider openings will affect the rest of the north.
