16 h.- Up to 4 cm of snow in the plains
Temperatures are starting to drop and are close to 0 ° C in Lorraine and the Ardennes, Météo France announced in its latest bulletin. They will become weakly negative at the start of the night from Monday to Tuesday while rains will hit the Ardennes and then Lorraine. These rains could become freezing early to midnight on Monday.

Even if this ice storm will remain local and temporary, road traffic could be disrupted. At the end of the night from Monday to Tuesday, snow may take over, with ground handling rather reserved for the eastern part of the Moselle and Meurthe-et-Moselle: 1 to 4 centimeters of snow could be observed by places Tuesday morning before temperatures soften into Tuesday day. The snow will then only hold up in mountains above 500 to 700 meters above sea level.

Four departments in eastern France are placed on orange vigilance for snow and ice this Monday by Météo France.

These are the Ardennes, the Meuse, the Meurthe-et-Moselle and the Moselle.
Fogs will be frequent, sometimes dense and freezing over these departments.
This is the “first notable winter episode in the Grand-Est with a risk of freezing rains setting in on Monday evening”. “Ice, even in small quantities, can disrupt economic activity and is particularly troublesome for road traffic,” warns Météo-France.
-7 ° C in Nancy
The temperatures under shelter are of the order of -5 to -7 ° C in these regions, locally less.
We note this morning at 5 am local, -9 ° C in Mourmelon, in the Marne, -7 ° C in Nancy in Meurthe-et-Moselle.
Freezing rain
At the start of the night from Monday to Tuesday, the temperatures will become slightly negative while the rains will first affect the Ardennes and then Lorraine. In conjunction with these negative temperatures, the rains will be likely to be freezing in the early and middle of the night from Monday to Tuesday. Even if this ice storm remains local and temporary, road traffic could be disrupted.
At the end of the night from Monday to Tuesday, snow will take over, with a holding on the ground rather reserved for the eastern part of the Moselle and Meurthe-et-Moselle: 1 to 4 centimeters of snow could be observed in places Tuesday morning before temperatures soften on Tuesday. The snow will then only hold up in mountains above 500 meters above sea level.
