“In the evening of Tuesday, light precipitation approaches the area of departments in orange from the south, from Normandy to Burgundy-Franche-Comté, then progresses during the night further towards the north”, specifies its bulletin published Tuesday around 6 a.m., warning of “notable freezing rain which could make driving conditions difficult”. Temperatures “between − 2 and − 10 °C” were noted in the morning in the departments on orange alert.

The Nord and Pas-de-Calais will be little affected by freezing rain but rather by snow, specifies the same source. Météo-France has also planned for Wednesday an orange snow-ice vigilance for thirty-four departments in the northeastern third and has placed two other departments in the west of the country on orange rain-flood vigilance. The meteorological agency specifies that cumulative rainfall of 30 to 50 millimeters in twenty-four hours is expected in Finstère and Morbihan.
