The rain was long overdue.

Monday afternoon, the sky did not do things by halves with a real deluge which fell on Rennes.

Twice, around 4:30 p.m. and 6 p.m., heavy stormy rain showered the streets of the Breton capital, especially in the city center.

Bombarded with calls, the firefighters immediately activated an advanced command post.

Between 6 p.m. and midnight, they carried out a total of twenty interventions in homes or businesses.

The Noz store on rue de Saint-Malo had to close its doors hastily at the end of the day due to a leak in its roof.

The basements of an escape game located on Quai Duguay-Trouin and the Pasteur kindergarten were also flooded.

Firefighters also intervened in the Blosne district in the south of the city.
