Above the Loire, the announced temperatures do not exceed 36 degrees. Brittany should be spared, since 29 degrees are expected in Rennesjust like the north of the country: it will only 24 degrees in Cherbourg and 26 in Lille.
In Paris, 32 degrees are announceda little less than in Strasbourg, where the thermometers should display 35°C.
Sunny skies over most of the country
In the early morning, low clouds will be present this Thursday around the Gulf of Lion but these mists and stratus will dissipate to give way to bright sunshine from mid-morning. The sun will also reign over the vast majority of the country. It will simply be contested by the passage of high clouds over the northern third.
In addition, a few isolated cumulus clouds will develop again in the afternoon on the massifs of the southern Alps and could locally release a small downpour near the Italian borders, warns Météo-France. It is the same on the high peaks of Corsica.
