The wind is forecast to be strong this Thursday on our two Charentes. Météo France announces that“a west wind will blow violently”, particularly on the islands, with gusts reaching 120 km/h on the coast, and up to 95 km/h in the Charente lands. The organization does not rule out a move to orange vigilance. He is waiting to better define the trajectory of the depression, but mentions a possible move to orange vigilance for departments “from the north and west of New Aquitaine”.
Among the consequences for us: most ferries between the island of Aix and Fouras are canceled this Thursday. Only departures from the island of Aix at 7:15 a.m. and 6:15 p.m. are, for the moment, maintained, as well as departures from Fouras at 8:15 a.m. and 6:45 p.m. But the Maritime Service of the island of Aix does not rule out ultimately having to cancel themtoo, depending on how the situation evolves. The other departures are therefore canceled: departures from the island of Aix at 9:30 a.m., 12:00 p.m., 3:45 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. And departures from Fouras at 11:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m., 4:15 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.
Another consequence, in the agglomeration of Royan, all community recycling centers are closed this Thursday “due to the weather alert broadcast by Météo France, indicating a particular danger linked to the strength of the winds”, indicate the FACE.
