After a weekend under the same auspices as the past week (overcast in the north, sunny in the south, cool temperatures), the weather will become more turbulent, rainy, snowy and windy from Tuesday December 20.
This Saturday, November 16 and Sunday, November 17, the weather will be the same as that which lasted almost the whole week: morning frosts which gradually set in in certain southern territories, more sunshine in the south and more grayness in the south. north.
Morning frosts, gray and sunshine this weekend
As the morning progresses, this Saturday the 16th, the gray weather dissipates in Charentes, Auvergne Rhône-Alpes and the south of Burgundy Franche-Comté to make way for the sun. On the rest of the northern half the gaps are rare. Near the English Channel, the clouds can at times be accompanied by a little drizzle at first, then at the end of the day light rain reaches from the north of Brittany to Nord-Pas-de-Calais, explains Météo France. To the south, despite some maritime entries between Languedoc-Roussillon and PACA, the day will be very sunny overall.
As for temperatures, in the early morning we expect between 2 and 7 degrees from Brittany and the Pays de Loire to the Belgian border as well as from the south of Aquitaine to the south of PACA and Corsica, between – 2 ( locally less) and + 3 degrees elsewhere. The maximums do not exceed 5 to 10 degrees in the northern half of the country, they range from 11 to 16 degrees in the southern half, up to 18 to 20 in Aquitaine, the south-east and Corsica.
The situation should be roughly the same this Sunday, November 17, with a little more scattered rain in the north of the country.
Cold snap next week
But from Monday, with a slight drop in temperatures, more wintry and unsettled weather will gradually settle in across France. And the north of the country is not ready to see the sun again, since from this Tuesday, November 20, the rain will come from the northwest and little by little spread to the south during the day and evening.
Unsettled, unsettled weather, which will settle in later, with wind, rain and snow, which can be abundant in the mountains at low altitude, possibly around Thursday, the poorest day of the week. The fault is a depression located in the north of France, an arrival of polar air and a “jet stream” from the Atlantic with violent winds at altitude accentuating the depression and potentially causing some risk of storms.
Without mentioning a “cold snap”, average temperatures will be 3 degrees below seasonal norms.
