It's spring weather, almost summer. It would even have a summer scent for certain French regions accustomed to grayness and low temperatures. In Aubagne this Friday, October 31, 27 degrees were reached. A very high temperature for the season but “which is not a record. At the same time, we had 29.8 degrees in 2006.“, nuance Météo-France.
In Marignane this Friday, November 1 in the afternoon, the mercury will rise to 24 degrees. It could reach 25 in the country of Marcel Pagnol. “Friday’s 27 degrees would be ambitious“, explains Météo-France.
“Overall, throughout Provence, we are 6 degrees above seasonal norms.underlines Gabriel Lellouch, forecaster at the Aix branch of Météo-France. 24 degrees is all around the Etang de Berre but also almost everywhere in the region“.
Will the sun be there on Saturday?
For this three-day weekend, should we expect radiant sunshine? “It's very sunny weather with almost no wind.“, reassures the forecaster.
A day therefore similar to that of Friday except on the thermometer side. “The maximums will drop slightly. We will be around 22-23 degrees on average in Provence but we remain once again clearly above normal“, specifies Gabriel Lellouch.
A slight drop in mercury which will be noted in particular in the Rhône valley.
Sunday, another Saturday?
And for Sunday, the Provençals will be able to enjoy this mild weather again. “The minimums are a little cool in the morning with 6 to 8 in the Rhône valley, near Avignon, Orange. But also along the Durance valley in Cadenet or Peyrolles-en-Provence“, details Météo-France.
In the morning, it will be between 10 and 11 degrees near Aix-en-Provence in particular. Almost similar temperatures on the coast.
An omnipresent sun also on Sunday which will still be present this Monday, the day of the start of the school year. The good weather should continue at the start of next week.
“There is fog early in the morning in the Rhône valley with reduced visibility. We can also find this phenomenon on Sunday morning due to the absence of wind and the presence of nocturnal humidity.“, warns Gabriel Lellouch.
Thick mists can also appear on the A8 motorway in the Var region. Be careful therefore, motorists.
