A disturbance from Spain will rise on Tuesday on the country, announces Météo-France.

The associated rains will water the South-West from the start of the morning and will be more sustained in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques.

Over the hours, the risk of rain will spread and move further north, affecting Limousin, Poitou-Charentes and Center Val de Loire.

In the afternoon, scattered showers will develop in Brittany, Normandy, and the Massif Central, while the Southwest will still experience continuous rain.

Rainfall will also reach Roussillon at the end of the day.

The eastern half of the country will remain clear of this disturbance, the sky will simply be cloudy.

The rain-snow limit will drop sharply on the west of the Pyrenean chain around 1,000/1,200m.

A light tramuntana will rise at the end of the day. 

14 to 19 degrees over much of the country

Minimum temperatures will be between 3 and 8 degrees over the northern half and between 5 and 11 degrees over the southern half.

The maximum will be down, 14 to 19 degrees over a large part of the country, a little cooler on Brittany and the Channel coasts with 12 to 14 degrees.

But it will be milder in Alsace with 20 degrees and 19 to 23 degrees in the southeast.
