An extensive high pressure system centered over Scandinavia will continue advecting dry and cold airmass from NW Russia over much of Eastern, South-Eastern and Central Europe. Presence of the high confines strong zonal flow to the southern part of the forecast domain, over the Mediterranean, where more active weather pattern is forecast south of the center of the mid to upper tropospheric low residing over the Czech Republic and the Black Sea. A short-wave trough will cross Corsica, Sardegna into the Tyrrhenian Sea in the evening and overnight hours.
