These storms will be accompanied by intense rain (locally 40 to 60 mm in a short time), violent gusts of wind and hail.
The risk of large hail is high, particularly in the South-West and the Massif Central.
Météo-France therefore warns against a stormy episode "requiring special vigilance because of a high risk of violent phenomena".
