The Ford on the Sesia ...

Fiume Sesia

The Ford on the Sesia sent on April 02, 2021 (1:30) by Pinitti. 102 comments, 1699 views. [retina]

Quello che si vede in foto è circa un terzo del letto del fiume Sesia, la restante parte è pressoché asciutta tranne qualche pozza d'acqua qua e là. Tale situazione, com'è intuibile, non va per niente bene, da un fiume di grande portata si è ridotto, nel corso soprattutto dell'ultimo decennio, ad un fiume di regime e carattere torrentizio o poco più e ciò la dice lunga sugli effetti del cambiamento climatico. Nel periodo estivo la situazione è ancora peggiore, perché lo scioglimento delle nevi dal bacino imbrifero della Val Sesia, da cui il fiume trae origine e nome, non assiste più la sua portata come un tempo, dato che le precipitazioni nevose e i ghiacciai del Monte Rosa, dove sono le sue sorgenti, sono in netto calo e regresso. L'unica cosa di positivo è che il basso livello dell'acqua ha fatto affiorare i resti di un antico ponte romano più a valle dal punto ritratto in foto (presso l'abitato di Mantie, nel Comune di Motta de' Conti): dal dopoguerra è capitato pochissime volte e chi raccontava di averli visti non veniva creduto, adesso sono lì da vedere senza alcun problema, in quasi qualsiasi periodo dell'anno, ahimè.

Thank you Pinitti having lived many years in Novara, in addition to studying in Vercelli, I remembered. Personally I prefer to use local sayings, even when they do not conform to grammar ;-) , but it is my choice

Beautiful shot, but it's scary climate change, when we really realize it will be too late :-.

Nice photo that, however, denounces a dramatic situation... I remember the Sesia for fishing between 1978 and 1979 when I was a military man in Casale Monferrato, and it was an imposing river, in all seasons and, at least in the places visited by me, it was not possible to ford it in any way :-)
Ciao, Carlo

Julo, it is like between "arancino" and "arancina" in Sicily, for palermos it is masculine while for catania it is feminine, the only thing certain is that it is a delicacy, never eaten anything better.
Althoy in the case of the Sesia or Sesia, the certain thing is that it is a river and remains so regardless of jargon or grammar.
Howeily, I also call it "the Sesia" in current speech but when I write I use masculine because that's how it has to be grammatically :-) ;-) .

I'm afraid, Mauro, that it's irreversible.
Cyo and have a good day of celebration.

Spectators of the dislodyal.
A shame we're starting to pay.

Despite the alarming caption the shot conveys peace and quiet !
We hope that nature will be able to remedy our damage!
Ciao Sasso ;-)
