The situation on the weather front is improving. Météo-France has in fact put an end this Sunday morning to the orange snow-ice vigilance for the whole country in its new bulletin, after the end of the freezing rains in the North-East which left one dead on a motorway in Burgundy .
A 20-year-old young man died on Saturday on the A6 in an accident probably due to the disturbance which crossed the north and east of France during this last weekend of the Christmas holidays, which had led to the placement of around thirty departments on orange snow-ice alert.
The return of a “sweet air”
This Sunday at 6 a.m., meteorologists therefore put an end to vigilance by explaining that “a disturbance associated with a mild air mass” was “sweeping the entire country, in a southwest/ northeast. This mild air puts an end to the snow and freezing rain that required monitoring.”
Météo-France had forecast snowfall “generally quite brief”, but which could be more persistent in the border departments of the Grand-Est, with up to five centimeters on the ground.
