Storm Boris returns to Italy

(ANSA) - ROME, SEP 17 - Storm Boris, the wave of extreme weather that has left at least 19 people dead in flooding in Central and Eastern Europe, is set to return to Italy from Tuesday to Thursday after brushing the peninsula last Thursday, weathermen said Tuesday.
    Italy is already on high alert, particularly in Emilia-Romagna and Marche, for expected floods after the devastating ones that hit Romania, Poland, Czech Republic and Austria, said Lorenzo Tedici.
    "The unusually hot Adriatic Sea will feed storms across the whole Adriatic Apennines starting Tuesday and lasting until Thursday," he said.
    "We expect more extreme weather events".
    Tedici said more than 250 mm of rain will fall in the next three days.
    A yellow bad-weather alert is in force in Adriatic regions and Lazio starting Tuesday. (ANSA).
