When frost arrives in Italy (and risk of snow)

Christmas will arrive a month early in Italy.
In fact, on November 25th, a mass of freezing air will arrive and envelop our peninsula, bringing with it winter temperatures.
From the Rovaniemi area in Finland, famous for being the birthplace of Santa Claus, a cold air current will arrive which will also hit Italy.
Passing through the Baltic Republics and Poland, the cold air current will reach the Mediterranean, causing a sudden drop in temperatures, bringing them below the average for the period, especially in the North where there could be several snowfalls.
However, not only the north of the peninsula will be at risk of snow, but also the Po Valley and some central cities.
Antonio Sanò, founder of Il Meteo.it warned that the drop in temperatures will also be accompanied by strong winds and some regions could be affected by showers.
With the cold upon us, it's best not to be caught unprepared: here's when and where the frost arrives and the risk of snow.

On the Lazio Apennines, especially on the Frosinone Apennines, the first snow could reach up to 500-800m.
However, the snow could also cover the capital with temperatures that will approach 0°C from November 27th, fulfilling the desire of many tourists to be able to see the whitewashed Colosseum.
Temperatures could drop to -1°C in the Roman countryside.
In short, from the anomalous summer heat, the result of the undeniable climate change, we will move on to the sudden freezing temperatures of Attila's Arctic Saber Strike.
