Massa:Italy Severe weather in Italy's Tuscany region has led to significant disruptions, including river overflows and the evacuation of approximately 100 individuals. The adverse weather conditions have primarily impacted the areas of Massa, Carrara, and sections of the Tyrrhenian coast.
According to Anadolu Agency – English, heavy rainfall has resulted in the Tuscany region being placed under a red weather alert until midnight Thursday. In Massa, the overflow of the Frigido River has necessitated evacuations, particularly in the hamlets of Casette and Forno, where a landslide has obstructed road access to these villages.
Additionally, several smaller streams and the Serchio River have overflowed in the province of Lucca. This has led to the evacuation of homes in the Serchio floodplain in San Giuliano Terme, Pisa. A bridge in the Ripafratta area is closed, and a road in the Caprigliola area of Massa-Carrara has been temporarily shut in both directions following an overnight landslide, causing traffic to be diverted.
