Hot weather in Eure-et-Loir: we could reach 40°C on Sunday July 17 and Monday July 18

The department of Eure-et-Loir escapes, for the moment, the heat wave announced on the south-west of France, but also on the north and the east, in the middle of this week.

30 degrees were recorded on Monday, July 11, 2022, in Eure-et-Loir, by forecasters from Météo France, whose regional office is located in Parçay-Meslay (Indre-et-Loire).

“We expect 33-34°C, Tuesday July 12, in Chartres and 35-37°C, Wednesday July 13.”

Temperatures are expected to drop Thursday 14 and Friday 15 July to be around 30°Cthen go up, Saturday July 16 at 32°C. We could reach 40°C on Sunday July 17 and Monday July 18.

A huge and lasting heat wave will hit France throughout the week

cooler nights

The nights will be cooler, with 15 to 17 degrees overnight from Tuesday July 12 to Wednesday or 15 to 18 degrees overnight from Wednesday July 13 to Thursday July 14. These forecasts do not correspond to the thresholds set in the department to define a heatwave episode.

“You have to exceed the threshold of 18 degrees at night and 34 degrees in the afternoon and that for at least three consecutive days”, details Nadine Plunian.
The heat peak that was scheduled for Thursday and Friday would be shifted to Sunday and Monday.

“We readjust the forecasting models every day. »

The department would therefore be spared, in the immediate future, by this heat wave episode, but is nevertheless faced with a second heat wave, after that of Saturday June 18.
