It's Raining (Weather) Proverbs...
The interview with Carlo Lapucci on his book “Cielo a pecorelle” explores the deep ties between Italian weather lore and science. Both stem from the human need to read the atmosphere. Lapucci notes that meteorology is not an exact science; its modern failures stem from overly ambitious, long-range forecasts, whereas old proverbs thrived on hyper-local, immediate observations Di Primavera Fisogni In queste giornate torride d’inizio estate, il “cielo a pecorelle” che anticipa u
