Genoa's city authorities have issued an orange weather alert for thunderstorms until midnight, followed by a yellow alert until Monday afternoon. Heavy rain has battered Liguria, with Savona recording over 368 millimetres of rainfall. Forecasts point to continued storms across the region, with strong winds but some sunshine also reported, as renewed bad weather sweeps Italy.

Italian news outlets are focused on Cyclone Harry, which produced a record 16.6-metre wave in the Mediterranean, according to a study led by the universities of Bari and Catania. Forecasters warn that further cyclones could hit Italy in the coming weeks, with cold from Russia expected early November. Heavy rain and flood risk are flagged for northern and central regions, including a collapsed retaining wall in Genova, while damaged beach concessions along the hit coastline are to be exempt from state fees.
