After the rain, it's time to take stock.

The awakening was particularly difficult this Sunday in the Bouches-du-Rhône, while the department was placed until this morning in orange vigilance for thunderstorms, rains and floods.

According to

La Provence

, the roof of a house went up in smoke after being struck by lightning in Arles.

Closer to Marseille, still according to our colleagues, the city of Martigues was affected by significant flows of water and mud which crossed the district of La Couronne, in particular in the handle of Tamaris, already ravaged this summer by a violent fire.

On Twitter, the Bouches-du-Rhône firefighters reported about fifty operations in progress, mainly pumping and cleaning actions.
