Winter arrives in Sardinia in the early days of spring, once again blanketing the peaks of the Gennargentu mountains after a weekend of freezing temperatures and a few sprinklings of snow above 1,000 meters.
Holy Week begins with subzero temperatures in the mountainous areas of the island, where this morning temperatures reached -2.1 degrees Celsius in Su Separadorgiu, just below the peak of Bruncispina, 1,440 meters above sea level.
Winter temperatures, below zero, were recorded throughout the Nuoro area and in Alta Gallura.
Further rainfall is expected for much of Holy Week, then the Azores anticyclone will reach the Mediterranean, bringing sunshine and temperatures above 20 degrees on Easter Monday.
