The week will end as it began. The heat currently beating down on France will continue to be felt on Saturday June 17 and Sunday June 18, according to Météo France forecasts. The thermometer will exceed 30°C in around forty departments on Saturday, before the arrival of a strong stormy deterioration during the day on Sunday. As The Weather Channel explains, “it’s hot weather that will prevail across the country” and the arrival of thunderstorms could prompt a weather alert from the specialized site.
On Saturday, the weather will be fine everywhere, despite the formation of clouds in the South and the arrival of heavy weather over many territories. Sunday, “the situation will begin to deteriorate from the West with the arrival of a stormy wave probably quite strong in the morning”, explains La Chaîne Météo. The thunderstorms will then move to the rest of the country, passing through central France, before reaching the eastern regions in the evening. Temperatures will remain high before these storms break out, around 30°C, but will drop quickly when the weather begins.
The start of next week could be like this end of the weekend, even if the situation is still “uncertain”. “It is likely that the following week will be very stormy over France in a hot and humid southwesterly flow, with a tropical atmosphere and heavy weather”, concludes the specialized site. While waiting for next week, it will already be necessary to resist the temperatures of this Saturday, June 17. Is your department one of those where the thermometer will exceed 30°C?
