Thunderstorms, rain ... The Southwest experienced a very turbulent Monday afternoon. In this context, some residents of Tarn-et-Garonne were treated to an amazing spectacle. A snorkel formed in the sky of Finhan, Bessens or Monbéqui, villages located about twenty kilometers southwest of Montauban, very close to Haute-Garonne.
