AI-generated summary
Winter temperatures are just starting to set in, but the mercury is already rising abnormally for the month of November in France.
Winter temperatures have barely had time to rear their ugly heads before the mercury is already rising. The Weather Channel notably announces “great mildness” on its X account, from next week, from Monday 9 to Sunday 15 November.
The days of Tuesday and Wednesday will be marked by particularly high temperatures for the month of November. The Weather Channel is even forecasting temperatures that could reach 23 degrees in the southwest, or 10 degrees higher than seasonal norms.
Rain expected
The Tamétéo.com site predicts up to 25 degrees in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques and the Landes. The mercury could also exceed 20 degrees more generally in the rest of France. This increase in temperatures is notably due to the arrival of an “air mass from Africa”, specifies the site.
But there is a downside, because this week of abnormally high temperatures should also be rainy: “The low pressures present over the Azores and the near Atlantic should end up shifting above our country. Thus, precipitation will increase over the days of next week,” predicts Tamétéo.com. The anorak will therefore remain essential, particularly in the south-eastern quarter.
