Confidence: high.
Better served than 27 % of the 12,629 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 53 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the BRIONNE weather station, 10.2 km away at 59 m; the village itself is at 144 m. [11]
The village sits 85 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]
An average of 790 mm of rain a year, spread over 145 days — about 5.4 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at EPEGARD, 4.9 km away at 136 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
