Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 22 days a year at or above 30 °C and 26 days at or below 0 °C, over 20 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the LICQ-ATHEREY weather station, 16.3 km away at 288 m; the village itself is at 219 m. [11]
The village sits 69 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 4.94 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]
An average of 1,367 mm of rain a year, spread over 139 days — about 9.8 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at TROIS-VILLES, 7 km away at 216 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
