The thunderstorm activity mainly in the Sardinia, as well as the extreme south of the island in a way localized (in the region of Figari). Showers sometimes moderate still occur on the terrain of the island as well as on the south of the Corse-du-Sud.
The accumulated rainfall measured during the last 12 hours are on the whole remained modest (20 to 40 mm) and are distributed either side of the central chain as well as in the Balagne ; the radar measurements suggests, however, values much more important locally, ranging between 150 and 200 mm on the sectors Cinto/Rotondo/Renoso.
