So it will be a summer with panache! The heat plume or heat plume will reach France from Wednesday July 13, 2022. Sunscreen, sunglasses and a fan will be a must, as thermometer temperatures will not stop climbing in some departments. Temperature peaks of up to 42 degrees are to be expected, as indicated by La Chaîne Météo. While some will be very hot, still others will not suffer from this heat wave, because what is called “the heat plume will not pass over them. This expression is less common than that of “heat dome”.

It consists, according to Liberation, of a band of hot air formed from the Sahara, rising in latitude, passing through Spain, before arriving in France. It was pulled by a cold drop phenomenon, a mass of cold air (between -10 and -20 degrees) which turns on itself and inexorably attracts feathers. This heat plume effect is very mobile and therefore has the particularity of not staying in the same place for very long. Thus, temperatures will remain high for at least five days.

Among the departments, some will resist the heat again and again. Temperatures will not rise in some places above 25 degrees. In any case, this is what the forecasts of Météo France indicate for Wednesday July 13, 2022, in the afternoon. This may be an opportunity to go on vacation to these places to avoid getting too hot. So here is the list of departments where the thermometer will not climb above 25 degrees.
