It’s a week full of twists and turns that the sky has in store for us! Between rains and a few shy rays of sunshine, autumn is fully expressed. This beginning of the week, we will celebrate the Armistice under a rather gloomy sky, a slightly persistent gray, a time as if suspended, almost nostalgic.
Monday November 11: A public holiday under gray skies
We start with a Monday full of shades of gray.
- Northern France : Hauts-de-France and Normandy will start the day under a veil of thick clouds, with some scattered rain. It will be cool: barely 6°C in the morning, up to 10°C in the afternoon, a little cold snap that reminds us that winter is approaching.
- Western France : Brittany and the Pays de la Loire will also have their share of clouds, with a hope of clearings, very mild, very discreet. Temperatures will fluctuate between 7°C and 12°C.
- Eastern France : In Alsace and Lorraine, the sky will be milder, with a few patches of blue in the middle of the clouds and up to 13°C in the afternoon.
- South of France : Ah, our beautiful southern regions… There, we will find the sun, faithful to the post. Temperatures will be mild, with maximums around 18°C.
Tuesday and Wednesday: A disturbance arrives, and an air of freshness sets in
So, get ready, because from Tuesday, a small disturbance will appear on the program…
- North and West : Rain, light but present, will sweep across Normandy and Hauts-de-France, then will cool Brittany and the Pays de la Loire. Temperatures? Between 8°C and 13°C… nothing very warm.
- East : A changing sky, clouds here and there… but no rain! In Alsace and Lorraine, we will keep temperatures around 12°C.
- Sud : In the south, again and again this beautiful weather. We remain around 19°C, an almost unexpected mildness for November.
Meteorological Vigilance
For this week, we have particular vigilance to keep in mind: in the south, Aude and Hérault are under orange vigilance at the start of the week. Heavy rain, thunderstorms… and risk of flooding with accumulations of up to 150 mm in places! Caution is required in these departments, and in other southern regions placed on yellow alert for violent winds and intense precipitation. If you are in these areas, my dear friends, exercise caution and avoid non-essential travel.
Weekend: A fresh breath, a clearer sky
Wednesday and Thursday, the cold creeps in discreetly, a light breeze chills the air.
- North and West : Small showers here, drops there… and a feeling of cold that is getting stronger. We won't exceed 10°C, a bit chilly, isn't it?
- East : Some clearings are expected. A soft light in a sky between gray and blue, with temperatures of 4°C to 11°C.
- Sud : True to itself, our beautiful south keeps the sun. Near the Mediterranean, the wind will be more present, but we won't complain too much with temperatures up to 17°C!
Uncertain weekend: Rain, sunny spells and a little patience
So, what does the weekend have in store for us? The north will remain under intermittent showers, the east could see some clearings, and the south will still benefit from the autumnal mildness despite a stronger wind.
In short, my friends, this fall week is a melodious score of gray and sunshine. Let's enjoy this bittersweet atmosphere, and above all… let's keep an eye on the sky, as we would for an old friend.
