Cyclone Harry tore through southern Italy and Malta in mid-January, triggering red alerts across Sicily, Sardinia and Calabria as hurricane-force winds, torrential rain and storm surges overwhelmed coastal regions. Authorities estimate damage at over one billion euros, with assessments still underway. More than 1,600 rescue operations were carried out in three days as waves exceeding 8 metres battered coastlines, flooding ports, collapsing infrastructure and forcing evacuations. Flights were diverted across the central Mediterranean, leaving island communities cut off. Officials and scientists warn the scale and cost of Cyclone Harry reflect a broader trend of intensifying extreme weather across Europe.
