- A third resident was pulled alive with a leg fracture, as firefighters and civil protection logged about 200 interventions across the region.
- Evacuations and rooftop rescues were carried out in areas including Romans d'Isonzo and Versa after the Torre River overflowed.
- Venice activated the MOSE barriers to protect the lagoon from storm surge driven by Sirocco winds, with municipal authorities warning the system may remain raised.
- In Liguria, a retaining wall collapse in Genoa’s Pegli district buried cars without causing injuries, and a localized downburst between Voltri and Sampierdarena overturned vehicles and uprooted trees as regional warnings stayed in effect.
