2023-01-13T14:57:19.044Z


A very disturbed winter week is coming. Early trends suggest that the wind could be blowing particularly hard in


The weather will change and become more wintry, and therefore seasonal, from Sunday.

Not only will temperatures drop, but depressions will follow.

One of them could cause a storm, from Monday night to Tuesday, in the Southwest, that is to say with average winds over one minute of at least 90 km / h.

Please note that this is only a trend for the moment, certainly taking more and more shape, but only a trend and not yet a certain forecast.

At the end of the morning this Friday, one of Météo France's calculation models produced this result: gusts of 150 km/h on the coasts and well above 100 km/h inland, such as the shows this map established by Météociel based on data from the national meteorological organization.

At daybreak, the average wind on the coast would be a little over 100 km/h.

Arpège, the model used, tends to overestimate the wind speed.

The values ​​indicated on this map are therefore both raw and to be tempered.

The American model GFS also counts on an average wind slightly lower than 100 km/h (and therefore stronger gusts).

But the two models agree, as of this Friday, on a storm in the region from Monday night to Tuesday.

Earlier in the morning, Météo France described the situation as follows: “Tuesday, the weather is very disturbed.

A gale is possible on the Atlantic coast as well as on the southern half.

The vigilance forecast map for this day identifies the risk linked to the wind while, in the other parts of France, it is the snow that is highlighted.

During the weekend, a more precise weather model from Météo France, Arome, will provide more information on the situation.

The more precise location of the strongest winds can then be better anticipated, as well as their strength.
