After a bad start to the month of April (winds, rains, storm yellow alert, and temperatures reaching -3°C in some departments such as the Ardennes), the Easter weekend from April 7 to 9 announces much more pleasant weather.

Those who were impatiently awaiting the return of good weather will be delighted during this weekend. You will be able to store your umbrellas and your scarves in your cupboards this Saturday, because the heat and the sun will be back in France. Indeed, it will be up to 24°C in certain regions such as New Aquitaine and Occitanie.

Others, on the other hand, will experience fairly varied weather, which will alternate between fine clearings and cloudy periods, especially in the morning. (This is the case for Normandy or Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, which will have temperatures ranging from -1 °C to 17°C).

Regarding the evening and the night, the weather will be generally quite calm, but some light rains cannot be excluded in the North-East (in particular towards Lille and Brest).

As for the temperatures on Sunday and Monday, they will be a little lower but will still reach 19/20°C in some French departments, which will guarantee an egg hunt under a pleasant sun!
