The situation around Scoppito

A wet week around L'Aquila, with frequent precipitation. Leading for the Scoppito area over the last 14 days is Meteo Aeronautica Militare, although its lead over the runner-up is under 3 points. For rain forecasts alone, however, the most accurate service in the provincial capital is Apple Weather. Little wind: light breezes on most days. Yesterday's report card reshuffled the order: the week's No. 2 finished No. 1. In nearby municipalities (Fiamignano, Tornimparte) the leading service does not change. A curious detail: yesterday the service ranked last overall was among the two most accurate on the provincial capital's report card. In wet weeks like this one, rain forecasts matter most: they account for three quarters of the score.
