There has been flooding and landslides in parts of northern Italy as red alerts cover cities including Florence and Pisa.
Torrential rain prompted the alerts for parts of Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna, with heavy and persistent rainfall expected into the afternoon on Friday.
Tuscany's president said local rescue and health services were on high alert and advised residents to exercise "the utmost attention and caution".
Almost a month's worth of rain fell in Florence on Friday morning while landslides and mudslides were reported in Bologna, where some residents were evacuated on Thursday evening ahead of heavy rain overnight.
No casualties have so far been reported, and the city said the worst of the flooding had passed by mid-morning on Friday.
