Storms forecast after deadly tornado (2)

(ANSA) - Rome, November 7 - More violent storms are forecast across southern Italy on Monday, a day after heavy rains and a tornado killed two men in the towns of Ladispoli and Cesano north of Rome.
    Storms have been forecast on Monday in the southern regions of Basilicata, Calabria and Puglia, as well as across Sicily. On Sunday, two men died after a tornado hit an area north of Rome, wounding several others and knocking down trees, damaging buildings, causing floods and leaving Ladispoli's train station without power.
    In the coastal town, a 25-year-old Indian national died after part of a church's facade fell off and hit him.
    The other victim, a 74-year-old retired army colonel, died after he was hit by a tree in the town of Cesano, near Lake Bracciano, one of the areas most affected by Sunday's storms.
    Several homes were badly damaged in the storms.
    Ladispoli Mayor Crescienzo Palliotta said 10 people were wounded in the coastal town, including three who were in serious condition, and about 100 buildings reported significant damage.
    Schools remained closed in the coastal town on Monday.
    Rome was also hit by a storm, which knocked down 70 trees and flooded several streets, mainly in the southern part of the capital.
    Meanwhile about 60 aftershocks - all above magnitude 2 - were registered since the early hours on Monday in areas of the Marche, Umbria and Lazio regions that have been hit by a series of recent quakes.
    The National Institute of Geophysics and Vulcanology (INGV) said Monday that the strongest were two 3.1-magnitude quakes reported at 1:18 am and 4:13 am with an epicenter close to the Marche town of Ussita near Macerata.
    No injuries were reported.
