It seems the weather just loves to toy with our emotions. After a week of cold, snow, and wind, a warm spell has allowed the bravest among us to revisit the terraces in the evening (we're barely exaggerating...). A pleasant rise in temperatures (even if it comes with quite a bit of rain), but just a heads up, we hope you haven't already packed away your parkas and winter coats, as the weather could turn sour again.
A mild start to the week… but gray
Let's not get ahead of ourselves; before diving into the potential downfall waiting for us at the end of the week, let's take a moment to focus on the forecast for the coming days. And overall, we’re warning you, it won’t change much compared to what we experienced last week. In general, the weather...
Temperatures between 3 and 10° are expected all week, and the sky will mostly be gray, foggy, and even rainy especially starting Thursday. Luckily, a few beautiful bright spots will manage to break through the clouds here and there on Tuesday and Wednesday.— 🇨🇵 Gaulliste à 500 % 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇺🇲🇳🇿🇮🇱 (@J1966C) January 15, 2026
A Strong Comeback of Winter
Unfortunately, this Sunday, January 25 could mark a turning point in our little lives, as a cold wave might hit France and Lyon. What's behind this potential return of snow? For a few weeks now, the countries in the Northern Europe have been experiencing an unprecedented cold wave. -43°C in Finnish Lapland, -50°C in Stockholm, and even -60°C in Siberia. And while this reservoir of icy air, also known as the “polar vortex,” is currently stuck up top the Old Continent, it is expected to move southwest, and thus to France, in the coming days. But don’t worry, for now, the likelihood of this scenario is still relatively low and would require several factors to come together. So, no need to panic just yet!
