The 38 degrees could be reached during the weekend in the departments in orange vigilance at the heat wave: the Rhône, the Ain and the Isère.
WEATHER – The alert was triggered this Saturday at midday in the Rhône where the bar of 30 degrees under shelter was cheerfully crossed. And this Sunday August 13, two other departments are concerned by this orange vigilance in the heat wave launched by Météo France.
« The shift in the winds to the southwest will continue to drain the Rhône-Alpes region of a mass of hot air of Spanish origin “, warns the organization. As a result, Isère and Ain will also face an episode of very hot weather.
Not only will the maximums exceed 35 degrees (including in yellow vigilance areas such as Drôme and Ardèche) but the minimums will also remain on high plateaus, which characterizes heat waves. It did not, for example, make less than 23.1 degrees in Lyon this Saturday.
« After a hot night, especially in the city centers, the heat will remain on the departments in orange and yellow heat wave vigilance this Sunday, with maximum expected at the end of the afternoon around 34 to 36 ° C in plains and valleys with 37 degree tips », Pointe Météo France this Sunday morning
