Be careful in your travels in the coming hours. Météo France has placed 71 departments on yellow “violent wind” vigilance, including Eure-et-Loir and the other departments of the Center-Val de Loire region. An alert in effect from this Wednesday, 9 p.m., and until 6 a.m. the next day.
Gusts up to 90 km / h
This gale, associated with the Christoph winter depression in the British Isles, led Météo France to place the Rhône, La Loire and Haute Loire on orange vigilance. This is also the case for Pas-de-Calais and the North.
According to the association Weather Center, gusts of 70 to 90 km / h are expected in Eure-et-Loir.
Meteo France specifies that in the Massif Central and the Lyonnais “the southerly wind blows strongly. It is in the early evening that it will be strongest. It can generally reach 90 to 100 km / h. But it is more particularly the south of the Loire and Rhône departments (Gier valley, Pilat, Lyon metropolitan area) and the plateaus of eastern Haute-Loire which will be affected. In these sectors, gusty wind values are expected up to at 110 km / h, sometimes 120 km / h. The part of the north of Isère along the Rhône department will also be affected by violent gusts. The wind will drop significantly at the end of the evening but will still remain strong overnight.
On the Hauts-de-France side, “an active disturbance will quickly cross the region next night. It will be associated with a strong southerly wind, accompanied by violent gusts, close to 90 to 100 km / h in the interior of the Hauts-de-France. This strong wind will continue in the second part of the night, gradually shifting to the east. It will weaken at the end of the night from the west. “
