“You could encounter patches of ice in places: therefore adapt your driving and limit your travel to the regions most affected by this depression”. Here is the message delivered by the prefecture of Indre-et-Loire this Thursday. Haute-Vienne, Sarthe and Loir-et-Cher have been placed on orange snow-ice alert by Météo France. The caution message also concerns gusty winds in the afternoon. They could reach 95 km/h.
The prefecture also recommends limit travel if this is possible. If you travel to neighboring regions, it is possible to encounter snow all the way to the plains, temperatures worthy of January.
The first snowflakes from Storm Caetano fell this Thursday morning on Brittany and Normandy as winter descends on France, where 54 departments are placed on orange vigilance snow, ice and wind.
