Two weeks after the early heat wave that hit France, new heat records should be broken next week in France.
According to BFMTV, the south-east of the country should be particularly affected with temperatures locally around 40°C.
In the north of France, this episode of heat should be accompanied by rain and thunderstorms.
According to Météo Languedoc, the rest of the territory will be subject to drying and warming of the air mass due to the circulation of low pressures.
According to the specialized site, the city of Nîmes will not be spared since temperatures of 40 ° C are expected there next Monday.
For its part, Météo-France is a little more nuanced: the meteorological service forecasts between 35 and 40 ° C in Montpellier or Perpignan on Monday.
Estimates that could still change over the days.
Expected night heat
Questioned by our colleagues from BFM, Christelle Robert, forecasting engineer at Météo-France, recalled that a heat wave and a heat wave were two different phenomena.
“Heat waves are defined by very mild nights followed by very hot days, at least three in a row,” she explained.
In such a context, it is advisable to adopt a few reflexes to adapt to these high temperatures.
It is therefore advisable, especially for the elderly, to drink a lot, to stay cool and to moisten the body regularly.
The health authorities have set up a telephone platform accessible on 08 00 06 66 66. In the meantime, the weather should remain mild and summery throughout the territory by Sunday.
