There was some minor damage in Licata from boats touching without fenders (they were flying sideways as you can see in the video). And our friend's boat got the passarelle smashed to bits, but lucky for them, they'd handed it over to the new owner that morning! Said new owner forgot to raise it when leaving the boat and got a very painful lesson when the boat surged back and forth.

Today apparently more tornados around Sicily, one person killed in Ragusa and several injured: Tromba d'aria nel ragusano, è morto un uomo di 53 anni

Hope that is the last of it. In a week the temperatures are dropping, which is usually a good sign for calmer meteorological conditions.

Any idea when your back?
We probably be away 4/5:weeks.

Aye, hopefully no tornados on account of the water around Sicily having cooled now, but still lots of wind. Malta on the other hand might be less lucky:
