Wednesday, 22 July 2026

7/10 — Very good. Warm and humid, with a stray storm not out of the question.

Highs should land somewhere in the upper 20s to around 30°C — models are split enough (27.1 to 30.3°C) that there’s genuine uncertainty on the exact number today, feeling close to 29°C either way with a sticky, humid edge to the afternoon. As the Apennines heat up through the day, an isolated storm or two can’t be ruled out, though most of the region should stay dry.

And tomorrow… 8/10 — Very good. A touch warmer and notably drier, with highs edging toward 30°C and the storm chance dropping right off — a more settled, confident day than today.

Tl;dr: Warm and humid with an outside chance of an isolated storm — nothing to reroute your plans over, but keep half an eye on the sky this afternoon.

Today’s BaZi

The day carries the fire-over-metal pillar Ding You — a day that rewards playing things straight and being seen doing so.

C: Outlook: mixed, breezy with a front moving through. Duty and reputation are the theme — good conditions for showing up properly and being counted on. There’s some quiet friction blowing in from an old direction, minor and easy to shrug off, while a helpful tailwind builds steadily underneath it, pulling things together in your favour. Later on, though, watch for a sharper gust of disruption — a clash that unsettles plans and stirs up movement, so keep the schedule loose rather than fixed.

D: Outlook: overcast with clearer patches inland. This is a day suited to solitary, unconventional thinking rather than crowds — insight favours those who go quiet. There’s a bit of self-generated friction in the air, the kind you cause yourself by circling the same thought too long, so don’t let brooding set in. Best use of the day: deep, heads-down focus work — save the meetings and networking for another front.
