Thunderstorms to Unleash Strong Winds Across Region

Expect Gusts Up to 20 m/s and Cooling Temperatures

Residents can brace for significant weather shifts as thunderstorms are set to bring stronger winds and a temperature drop across much of the nation. The forecast indicates potential gusts reaching 15-20 m/s, particularly during the storms.

Monday’s Forecast: Rain and Wind Intensification

Overnight, scattered showers are anticipated across a broad area, with the western regions likely to see the most precipitation. Further thunderstorms could develop before midnight. A moderate southeasterly wind will persist, with gusts potentially hitting 15-18 m/s during storm activity.

Paris weather will experience a cooler night, with temperatures dropping to between 14-18 degrees Celsius.

Atmospheric Front Brings Dynamic Weather

A passing atmospheric front on Monday is expected to introduce widespread short-term rains, accompanied by thunderstorms in many locales. The wind direction will shift to south and southwesterly, bringing slightly increased speeds. Localized wind gusts of 15-18 m/s are forecast during these thunderstorms.

Daytime temperatures on Monday are projected to range from 23 to 28 degrees Celsius. The Curonian Spit will remain the coolest area, while the southwestern parts of the country are expected to be the warmest.

For context, recent meteorological reports show that wind speeds during severe thunderstorms can significantly impact air travel. For instance, in 2023, a severe thunderstorm caused over 1,000 flight delays at a major European airport due to high winds (CNN, 2023).

Regional Temperature Variations Expected

While daytime highs are expected to reach up to 25-30 degrees Celsius, the coolest conditions will be found along the Curonian Spit. Conversely, the southwestern regions are predicted to experience the warmest weather.
