The Anas had to close sections of state roads due to the falling trees such as Aurelia at km 323 in Pisa, the Sarzanese-Valdera in Lajatico (Pisa), the Passo del Cerreto road at km 12.4 in Fivizzano (Massa Carrara).

Once the roof of an apartment building in Pietrasanta (Lucca) collapsed, the firefighters are securing it.
