It continues to blow. If the snow made the headlines this week, the wind has also been blowing very hard in recent days. While Météo France had placed the Pyrenees-Atlantiques on orange alert this Sunday for violent winds, six other departments will also be swept away this Monday by a “non-exceptional” windy episode but strong enough to redouble vigilance.
Thus, the forecaster places the departments of Saône-et-Loire, Allier, Puy-de-Dôme, Loire, Haute-Loire and Rhône on orange vigilance from Monday 6 a.m.
And the wind is already blowing strongly, since in its bulletin published Sunday evening, Météo France explains that in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, we recorded up to 124 km/h in Socoa, 105 km/h in Saint-Jean-Pied-de -Port and 186 km/h in Iraty in the mountains. Towards the Massif Central, we noted this afternoon, in Aurillac 93 km/h, Clermont-Ferrand 111 km/h, Vichy 89 km/h, Le Puy 92 km/h, St-Etienne 86 km/h, Lyon- Bron 94 km/h.

And the organization specifies that “uncertainty persists over a geographical extension of the phenomenon for strong gusts which may partially concern the departments neighboring those placed in orange, and in particular part of Cantal, as well as northern Isère or the 'Ain. »
