Spring has been here for just over a week and the weather is once again turning gray and snowy. This Tuesday, March 29 should be the last mild day of the week. From tomorrow, whether in the Loire or the Haute-Loire, the weather will darken.
“It’s a radical change that should be done in two stages,” explains Christophe Mertz from Météonews. Wednesday and Thursday, the weather promises to be gray and gloomy with the return of the rain. “Good news for agriculture, with showers which should be substantial: between 15 and 20 millimeters”, continues the meteorologist.
A “fairly notable” cold episode in terms of cold intensity
The cold, coming from the North, will cause the return of snow on the massifs. The flakes should fall from 500 or 600 meters above sea level. A weather that should continue on Saturday. “It is very difficult to announce a quantity of snow, but there is a chance that it will hold whether in Pilat or Haute-Loire and even on the heights of Saint-Etienne. »
This episode of cold is “fairly notable” in terms of cold intensity. In Roanne or Saint-Etienne, it will not take more than 5 to 6 degrees (13 or 14 for normal). In Puy-en-Velay or Brioude, the temperatures will be just positive, varying from 2 to 4 degrees.
Drier weather is expected on Sunday and it will then be necessary to watch for the morning frosts.
“These fluctuations are normal, we are only at the very beginning of spring, it’s the game of the season”, relativizes Christophe Mertz.
