For people in the South, this seems inconceivable. There was only 25 minutes of sun in 11 days has Rennesbetween November 1 and 11, indicates Météo-France this Wednesday.
The reason? A “powerful anticyclone over central Europe”who has “imposed generally calm but gray conditions on the northern half of France, favorable to stubborn mists and fogs in this season.”
The sunshine deficit ranges from 50% to 90%, with a duration often less than 15 hours in 11 days. The most impacted cities, besides Rennes, are Dijon (1h and 56min), Strasbourg (9h and 8min) and Paris (9h and 31min).
80 hours in Corsica
Conversely, the South is excess of 30% to 80% in duration of sunshine. This is between 50 and 70 hours for the first part of the month of November, which corresponds to “three to five sunny days”.
At the top, we find Ajaccio with 80 hours and 37 minutes. It is followed by Marignane (64h and 21min), Grenoble (60h and 41min) as well as Toulouse (51h and 5min). No city in the Alpes-Maritimes and Var appears in the top drawn up by Météo-France.
From very cold to too hot
Regarding temperatures, the maximums recorded were “often between +4°C and +6°C compared to normal 1991-2020″. Here, this corresponds to around 21°C on the coast.
“Over a very large northeastern quarter, on the other hand, temperatures remained close to normal or slightly lower by 1°C,” underlines Météo-France.
