Winter arrives next week: temperatures drop

Temperatures above seasonal norms at the end of the week will not last. The air mass will cool significantly on Sunday with even the arrival of snow at low altitude.

Temperatures will still remain quite high for the season between Thursday and Saturday. With the flow shifting to the south-west sector, temperatures will rise quite significantly from the west on Thursday then the warm weather will gain towards the east on Friday and Saturday. The values ​​will then be 2 to 3°C above normal for the start of December. During the night from Saturday to Sunday, a cold front will cross the country from north to south and the cooling will settle in behind. On Sunday we will already be 1°C below national normals with maximums often between 1 and 10°C only. The values ​​will therefore have fallen by 3 and 10°C depending on the city, in the space of 48 hours. The feeling will therefore become wintry with numerous showers, strong wind and the snow at lower and lower altitudes on the reliefs.

Increased cold next week: up to -10°C in the plains

Your feeling will become more and more wintry at the start of next week with the temperature of the air mass at 1500 meters falling around -8°C from the northeast to the center-east. Returns from the east will linger from the northeast to the center-east with snow up to the plain. The landscapes should therefore turn white in these regions and then the air mass will dry out. The most severe frosts are expected in the second part of the week, once the sky has cleared. Minimum temperatures in the plains will drop on average between -3 and 5°C but from the north-east to the center-east, especially where the ground will be snow-covered, values ​​could easily reach -5 to -8°C in places.

Reliability becomes more limited from next weekend with a warm spell from the south, but this remains to be confirmed in the coming days.
