One night in the freezer that just ended, for Sardinia. This is certified by the temperatures recorded by the network of control units of the Arpas meteorological department, the regional agency for environmental protection.
The coldest place among those monitored was once again Villanova Strisaili , a hamlet of Villagrande, in Ogliastra, which recorded 9.6 degrees below zero. Followed by Illorai (-8.1), Giave (-7.8), Benetutti (-7.7), Ozieri (-7.1) and Sadali (-6.1).
Very rigid climate also in the plain of Ottana, the area in Sardinia which experiences the widest temperature swing during the year: if in summer you travel towards 40 degrees, in the night just ended the mercury column dropped to -5, 6.
Even Cagliari has touched zero temperatures: Pirri's sensors report a minimum of 0.2. The hottest locality, among those covered by the system, was Stintino, with a minimum of 7.1 degrees.
However, the cold wave looks set to ease. Starting tomorrow, Sunday, temperatures will be on the rise, both in the minimum and maximum values. Confirmed upward trend for the following days.
