Rain before snow and strong winds

Friday morning, rain will be frequent in full. The temperatures will nevertheless be very mild in the morning.

The weather will remain similar in the afternoon with temperatures which will not change particularly.

“The episode that we will experience between Saturday and Monday is the kind of snowy episode that we observe every 5 years. In terms of intensity, we are at a high level. Realize that in terms of intensity, in two and a half days, certain sectors of the Pyrenees will start with 0 cm of snow and will accumulate 2 meters. It's monstrous. In 72 hours, certain sectors will accumulate as much snow as fell in an entire winter in Ariège in 2023-2024. With the wind, we will be able to record snowdrifts of 2 to 3 meters,” explained Christophe Dedieu, from the site Weather Pyreneesjoined by Toulouse News.

In Haute-Garonne, snow will accumulate on Sunday or Monday when the wind turns due north. One meter of snow will be reached at 2000 meters altitude.
