Confidence: high.
Better served than 34 % of the 17,909 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 9 days a year at or above 30 °C and 59 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the BRIONNE weather station, 12.2 km away at 59 m; the village itself is at 149 m. [11]
The village sits 90 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, 2.8 km away at 136 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
