3 October 2025

Wind and storm surge occur in the Port of Molfetta, Molfetta, on October 3, 2025. Apulia suddenly experiences winter conditions. Just over 10 days ago, the region has a late summer atmosphere with temperatures close to 30?C. Now, heavy clothes and coats are needed to cope with temperatures typical of early December. This dramatic drop in temperatures, accompanied by heavy rain and thunderstorms, is closely linked to a cold snap from Russia. This cold snap takes advantage of a rare weather pattern for this time of year, characterized by a powerful anticyclone over Scandinavia that activates currents from the east towards the Mediterranean.
