Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites on 13 March 2022, shows the snow cover on the Apennine range in central Italy. In south-eastern Europe, the first ten days of March 2022 have been characterised by cold temperatures and snowfall, as opposed to January and February, where temperatures were higher than average. In the past days, minimum temperatures have reached lows of -9°C in Italy, -25°C in the Balkans and -28°C on Mount Parnassus in Greece. The anticyclone that had brought mild and scarce precipitations temperatures in January and February has in fact now moved, causing cold arctic currents to shift towards Europe and on the Mediterranean.
