In the north, west and south-east of France, the sky will be dominated by a disturbance this Sunday.
In the afternoon, precipitation will ease temporarily before resuming at the end of the day.
Météo France has placed 52 departments on yellow alert, most of them due to storms and high winds.

In addition to these phenomena, there are risks of floods and waves-submersion on the Atlantic coast: Finistère, Morbihan, Loire-Atlantique, Vendée, Charente-Maritime, Gironde, Landes and Pyrénées-Atlantiques are touched.
Finally, the Hautes-Alpes, the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence and the Alpes-Maritimes are placed in avalanche yellow vigilance.
Météo France particularly warns of heavy rains in Corsica.
“Note that the sustained rains may be accompanied by thunderstorms, or even hail this evening and this night in Corsica, warns the meteorological institute on its Twitter account.
By tomorrow, many phenomena or hazards are likely to affect Corsica, including strong winds, waves-submersion.
