Still in the afternoon, it will be 8 ° C in Paris, 9 ° C in Biarrtiz, or 7 ° C in Amiens.
“From the end of Thursday until Friday, an active rainy system could organize and still bring substantial accumulation between Provence and Corsica by also overflowing on the Pyrenees side, written Météo France. Thus, the succession of rainy days should lead to a remarkably watered week in the Southeast, and in particular between the Var and the Alpes Maritimes”.
The return of spring hoped for next week
