Météo France indicates that precipitation will begin “to strengthen” and will be “sometimes stormy on the coast” from Corsica-du-Sud at the end of the afternoon.
Heavy accumulations expected and snow on the hills
-These rains will spread “during the night from Saturday to Sunday” to Haute-Corse then will strengthen “Continuously quite strong on the east of the entire island during the day on Sunday”.
On the eastern slopes and the summits of the central relief, the expected cumulative rainfall should reach between 150 and 220 mm by Sunday evening, in the form of snow above 1,500 meters above sea level, according to Météo-France. The expected accumulations on the coast would rather be 40 to 60 mm, locally 80 mm.
