At 08:05the mildness is remarkable throughout the country, thanks to the Floriane depression which pumps a subtropical air mass over France.
At 7:43 a.m.the wind continues to strengthen in the west and particularly in the heat where we exceed 120 km/h locally as in Fécamp in Seine-Maritime. The wind will continue to gradually strengthen both over the Atlantic arc and in the northwest over the hours.
At 07:21the rains are also abundant, alongside this gale. The 30 mm are exceeded in the Grand-Est in the Meuse for example, but also in the Ardèche Cévennes, which will experience sustained rain until the evening of this Monday. Be careful if you take the road towards the relief during the day.
