Unstable weather persists
This deterioration is part of a week marked by unstable weather conditions. Rain will continue to fall on the Alpes-Maritimes in the coming days. For Wednesday, April 16, a yellow alert “rain-flood” has already been announced.
Météo France also reports a risk of avalanches for this Tuesday. A yellow alert is in effect for the concerned mountain ranges. This phenomenon remains localized but could affect some mountain roads.
These alerts remind us of the importance of staying informed. Authorities urge residents to follow the evolution of the weather reports. Precautionary measures are necessary, especially for outdoor activities.
The yellow alert does not mean immediate danger but encourages everyone to remain vigilant. The thunderstorm episode is expected to subside on Wednesday morning, before being followed by another period of rain in the region.
