Clearly, the weather isn’t done playing with our nerves yet. After a week of cold, snow, and wind, a warm spell has allowed the bravest among us to enjoy the terraces in the evening (we're not exaggerating at all...). A lovely little temperature rise (even though it comes with quite a bit of rain), but we just want to give you a heads-up: we hope you haven’t already put away your parkas and puffer jackets for good, as the weather might very well take a turn for the worse again.
A gentle start to the week… but gray
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves; before we dive 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 next few days. And overall, just so you know, it won't change much from what we experienced last week. In general, there are some t...Temperatures between 5° and 13° are expected all week, and the sky will mostly be gray, misty, or even rainy, especially starting Thursday. Luckily, a few lovely sunny spells will manage to break through the clouds here and there on Tuesday and Wednesday.

A Strong Comeback of Winter
Unfortunately, this Sunday, January 25 could mark a turning point in our little lives, as a cold wave could sweep across France. What's behind this potential return of snow? Over the past few weeks, the countries in the Northern Europe have been hit by an unprecedented cold wave. We're talking about -43°C in Finnish Lapland, -50°C in Stockholm, and even -60°C in Siberia. Now, while this reservoir of icy air, also known as the "polar vortex," is currently stuck at the top of the Old Continent, it is expected to move down towards the southwest, which means France, in the coming days. But don’t worry too much: for now, the likelihood of this scenario remains relatively low and would require several factors. So no need to panic just yet!
