We are breaking temperature records in the Côte-d’Or

Sunglasses, shorts and T-shirts, just before Easter, we have a little bit of summer on the tip of our nose. This Tuesday, March 30, we are beating temperature records: 25 ° 5 recorded by Météo France this afternoon in Châtillon-sur-Seine. That’s almost half a degree higher than the previous record set in 1989.

It was 25.4 ° C in Montbard and 22 ° C in Dijon. We are 10 ° C above seasonal norms for the end of March.

Other records may be to come, as this radiant weather will continue until Friday afternoon, before the clouds return. Showers are to be expected for the Easter egg hunt this Sunday. Temperatures will drop to their normal level early next week.
