Green, yellow, orange and even red. The Météo France map is multi-colored this Thursday, October 17, 2024. In the south of the country, six departments are placed in red alert due to the passage of ex-Hurricane Leslie which has caused torrential rains since Wednesday October 16, 2024.

Beware of runoff phenomena
If for the moment the north of the country is spared, the yellow rain-flood vigilance has just moved to orange level in Paris and Île-de-France. Only Seine-et-Marne is on yellow alert.
“Rain is moving from the center of the country towards Île-de-France, sometimes with sustained intensity,” explains the meteorological institute. “The expected accumulations are notable and risk generating runoff-flooding/overflowing of watercourses.”
An episode that should last “until next night” but which will be much less violent than that caused by storm Kirk. Note that this new disturbance still comes from a former hurricane, named Leslie.
