Confidence: high.
Better served than 28 % of the 15,466 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 7 days a year at or above 30 °C and 115 days at or below 0 °C, over 20 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the ST-PAL-EN-CHALE weather station, 11.3 km away at 890 m; the village itself is at 976 m. [10]
The village sits 86 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.06 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]
An average of 829 mm of rain a year, spread over 114 days — about 7.3 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at ST-PAL-EN-CHALE, 11.3 km away at 890 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
