On Thursday, the CAETANO depression crosses central France from west to east and generates a major air mass conflict.
North of this depression, snowfall down to the plains is expected between the end of the night from Wednesday to Thursday and the evening of Thursday, from Brittany to Center-Val-de-Loire, via Normandy. On the southern part of the depression, the west-northwest wind becomes stormy between Loire-Atlantique and Vendée.
Maine-et-Loire on alert
Maine-et-Loire is placed on yellow alert for wind and ice between 6 a.m. and midnight. Snow enough to whiten the soil could appear in the north of the department as far as Angers “enough to whiten the soil to even 1 cm, sometimes transforming into wet snow” indicate Météo France forecasters
For the wind, it is in the south of the department that gusts of up to 100 km/h locally are forecast.
A refreezing phenomenon is also expected for Friday, November 22 morning.
