Confidence: high.
Better served than 69 % of the 18,022 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 3 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 16 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the LONGUEVILLE weather station, 9.6 km away at 5 m; the village itself is at 102 m. [11]
The village sits 97 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 1,131 mm of rain a year, spread over 153 days — about 7.4 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at EQUILLY, 4.3 km away at 101 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
