The weather remains unstable, especially in the southeast with frequent stormy rains. To the west, clearings are expected over the hours with more and more sunshine.

The stormy rains are triggered on the eastern facade and especially in the southeast, but they are less violent and numerous than the day before.

The sun returns from the west during the day and the temperatures rise.

Floods and flash floods of rivers and mountain streams are also to be feared in the

PACA region,

east of the Rhône and on the north of Corsica.

The violent rains cannot penetrate the soil and then run off quickly, which can cause "flash floods" that are dangerous for residents of these rivers and campsites.

These floods are a direct consequence of the recent drought which has hardened the ground.
