Storms and shipwrecks hinder Venetian lake crossing and siege relief
Reports from Venice describe a night storm on Lake Garda that wrecked many boats and scattered orders, delaying a planned reinforcement to Marshal de Noailles. The alert also notes shifting alliances and troop movements, including Bavarian contingents, Portuguese mediation, and Swedish plans to renew ties with the Czarina, as European forces maneuver in Lombardy and along the Rhine.
