For the day of Wednesday, Météo-France has placed the Aude on orange vigilance for rain-flooding, and expected from this Tuesday evening sustained rains also on the Hérault and the Pyrénées-Orientales.

Between now and Wednesday evening, we expect 80 to 120 mm on the Aude, placed in orange vigilance, locally 120 to 150 mm from Corbières to Narbonnais.

These rains will be accompanied by a few coastal thunderstorms and a sustained easterly wind.

It will snow in the western Pyrenees from 1,500 m in general, we expect 40 to 60 cm of snow above 2,000 m.

Light to moderate rains will overflow over the rest of Occitania, it will rain lightly over Aquitaine, with a little snow from 1,300 m over the western Pyrenees.

Calm, but wintry weather in the northern half of the country

The PACA region, the Alps and the Massif Central will stay away from the rains during the day, under a more or less hazy sky.

In the evening, however, stormy rains will reach Provence as far as the Var, then Corsica overnight.

The northern half will keep calm, but wintry weather.

It will be cold, with a north-easterly breeze that is decreasing but still noticeable.

The sky will be overcast north of the Seine and near the English Channel, with some showers on the coasts and locally fog inland.

Slowly, gaps will develop during the day.

From the Pays de la Loire to the Center and the North-East, on the other hand, the sun will dominate more clearly.

Any morning grayness will be quickly dissipated, locally a little more difficult as in the Saône Valley.

The minimum temperatures will go from -4 to 0 degrees in general on the northern half, a few degrees above 0 on the Channel and Atlantic facades, from 3 to 8 on the southern third of the country, and even around ten degrees at the edge. of the Mediterranean.
