Overview

• Firefighters halted a Milano–Lecco train just meters before a storm‑caused sinkhole near Bulciago, forcing suspension of the line.
• A landslide on Elba cut road access in località Forno and temporarily isolated about 200 residents as additional downpours swelled streams in Portoferraio.
• The Civil Protection set orange alerts for Friuli Venezia Giulia, Lazio, Lombardia, Toscana and Umbria, with yellow alerts across much of the rest of the country.
• Vigili del Fuoco reported roughly 280 interventions in 24 hours including evacuations in the Como area, while Anzio ordered all schools closed for Wednesday.
• Meteorologists highlight the risk of V‑shape storms over Liguria, Tuscany and Lazio with up to 150–200 mm of rain possible, as conditions are forecast to ease toward the weekend and warmer air lingers in parts of the South.
