A short-lived lull. While, in recent days, the vests had come out of the closet after a period of intense heat wave, the heat is back, indicates Météo-France. From this Friday afternoon, temperatures rise above normal for the season, “over a large southern part” of France. “The 30°C mark should be reached again in the South-West and in the Rhone Valley. We should reach or exceed 25 ° C from the Center-Val de Loire to Alsace, ”explains the organization.
However, the heat episode will not reach records like in previous weeks: “The heat will continue over the weekend, but not excessively. 25°C will generally be exceeded on Saturday, except along the Channel and at the foot of the Pyrenees. The 30°C could go further north, as far as Centre-Val de Loire and Burgundy on Sunday. »
?????After a cool sequence of a few days, T°C will rise this Thursday afternoon in the south, in a flow from the southwest then south, which will bring up a mass of milder air. ??https://t.co/YfOoxvLqYI ??Les Sables-d’Olonne ??Obs. participatory Meteo-France application pic.twitter.com/Ta7i4aYILQ
The heat is therefore back, and the storms with it. This Friday, “thunderstorms may rise over New Aquitaine and Occitania, during the evening and night, associated with strong gusts of wind, or hailstorms locally”.
Next week, several regions will hardly drop below 30°C. So on Monday, almost the entire southern half of the country will be above 30°C. A peak of 35°C is even expected in Limoges. The maximums in Montélimar will not fall below 30°C for the week, as will Toulouse, which will rise to 33°C. Lyon is also expecting equivalent temperatures.
It will also be good at night. Apart from Finistère and the northeast quarter, temperatures will not drop below 20°C. It will even be up to 24°C in La Rochelle and Nice at the coolest of the night on Monday.
