Due to heavy rain expected this Thursday, three Ile-de-France departments are placed on yellow “flood” alert for January 2 and 3, 2025. We take stock of the details of these forecasts in the Ile-de-France region.
The weather report still remains unstable over a large part of France at the start of 2025. This Thursday, January 2, Weather France places around thirty departments on yellow alert “rain-flood“and 15 others on yellow alert”snow-ice“.
Several departments in the north of France are placed in yellow vigilance “raw“. This is the case for Seine-Maritime, Calvados, Eure, Pas-de-Calais, Orne and even Oise.
But then, what is the situation Paris and Île-de-France ? This Thursday and Friday, three Ile-de-France departments are also placed by Météo France in yellow alert “raw“. This is the Val-d'Oiseof the Yvelines and the Seine-et-Marne. Enough to raise new concerns among the inhabitants of Seine-et-Marne. Remember, last October, this department of Île-de-France – then placed on red alert – experienced historic floods. The Grand Morin had reached a record level of 3.75 meters. The streets of the town of Crécy-la-Chapelle were found under more than a meter of water.
As recalled Vigicruesthe yellow vigilance is a “risk of flooding generating overflows and localized damage or a rapid and dangerous rise in water levels, requiring particular vigilance, particularly in the case of exposed and/or seasonal activities“.
Due to heavy rain expected in Île-de-France this Thursday, the Grand Morin downstream in Seine-et-Marne is thus closely scrutinized. “The increase will be observed during the day on Thursday. The increase can be rapid due to soil humidity and the intensity of the rains.“warns Vigicrues in its bulletin of the day, specifying that “the peak should be observed late Thursday afternoon“However, it should be “of a low flood“.
Furthermore, note that Île-de-France is placed in yellow vigilance “snow-ice“ this Friday.
