A first cold snap on France: a cold drop from Scandinavia descends across the country, with a severe drop in temperatures as a result. We should also expect “more unstable weather” from this Tuesday, Météo France warned.
Falling temperatures
The “cold blob” is a pocket of cold air aloft that descends and conflicts with warmer flows, resulting in precipitation. “These areas of low pressure are associated with an unstable air mass. They often cause disrupted weather, with showers, associated with strong gusts of wind,” according to the forecasting organization. And a drop in temperatures.
Since the beginning of November, the weather in France has remained rather mild and dry, after the wettest first ten months of the year on record. In 24 hours, temperatures dropped 4 to 8 degrees, sometimes more locally. Thus, Nice goes from 20 to 12°C, Paris from 10 to 6°C… Drops of the same order in Dijon, Lyon and even Belfort. The Breton tip shows 9°C compared to 18 the day before. And in Grenoble, which spent the weekend under the sun at 15-16°C in the shade, it will not be more than 7 to 8°C until Friday. The difference will be a little less noticeable in the north-east, where the weather was already cool: two degrees less on average in Alsace for example.

Snow on the reliefs
This drop in temperatures finally brings, on the reliefs, the first snow from 1200 meters, or even lower in the form of showers. This bodes well for the opening of winter sports resorts – even if “for the moment, no significant snow damage is expected in our mountains”, observes the Weather Channel. Above 1500 meters, 10 to 15 cm are expected, particularly in the south of the Alps.
This weekend promises to be milder and largely sunny for now, before more rain from Monday.

On Monday, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez spoke two days after a massive demonstration in Valencia denouncing the authorities' poor management of the deadly floods of October 29. He announced the adoption of 110 support measures for disaster victims, representing an investment of nearly 3.8 billion euros. The government had already announced last week a first aid plan of 10.6 billion euros after this disaster which left more than 220 dead and many victims.
