The weather in Bordeaux is clearly shifting towards beautiful days for the week of February 23, 2026. As the days get longer, an unusual warmth settles over the Gironde capital and the entire country. After 2 storms, heavy rains, and significant flooding, the sun is reclaiming its place and temperatures are rising between 15°C and 20°C. It's a preview of spring that makes scarves and coats take a break in the closet.
After Natural Disasters, Spring Returns
Temperatures show a clear difference from the seasonal averages. This Monday morning, the thermometer read 9°C in Bordeaux, which is seven degrees above the normal established around 2°C. During the afternoon, the mercury reached 16°C, bringing along plenty of sunshine and light. The sun
Wednesday will see a delightful day with lows of 9°C and bright highs reaching 20°C in the afternoon.Moroccan Air and Sahara Sand
An anticyclonic ridge and a south wind are bringing very mild air to the region. Starting Wednesday, February 25, the sky will clear up nicely under the influence of a light to moderate southern wind. It's weather fit for late April, even early May! Note: very small amounts of Sahara sand could once again drift over Bordeaux, a phenomenon observed several times in recent years.
However, the end of the week is expected to be a tad more turbulent with a disturbance that should pass through the region on Friday afternoon. Rain will make a comeback, though it won't cause a sudden drop in temperatures, which will remain very mild despite a slight dip. Good news for the weekend: Saturday and Sunday are looking sunny with 14°C at the warmest part of the day.
