The weather is pleasant in northern France this weekend, but very unstable in the southeast third, where stormy showers are expected, according to the Weather Channel.
This Saturday's weather
The northwestern half of the country is enjoying the sun on Saturday morning. It is rather cool, with temperatures of 7-8 degrees in Brittany, Pays de la Loire and Normandy. The sun dissipates in the morning in the Southeast, where stormy showers threaten throughout the day. But the tramontana (wind coming from the northwest that blows on the Mediterranean coast) prevents the installation of lasting rains that the soil would need.

Clouds return to cover the afternoon sky in the Centre-Val de Loire, Grand-Est and Île-de-France. Only the Breton and Norman coasts still enjoy wide thinning.
Temperatures warm up throughout the territory during the afternoon and vary between 17 and 22 degrees.
This Sunday's weather
The weather remains quite unstable in the southern third of the country on Sunday. Rains are expected in Occitania and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. It snows in the Pyrenees. On the contrary, calm reigns in the northern half. There are large thinnings from Brittany to the Great East.
