According to the Aix-en-Provence branch of Météo-France, the depression will develop from the end of the day. The wet and stormy program will come from the west of Bouches-du-Rhône and slowly move east to reach the Var and the Alpes-Maritimes at the end of the night.

In Marseille and the rest of Bouches-du-Rhône, the rain should last until early morning, and until evening in the Var and the Alpes-Maritimes where the concern changes.
