Vitality score
Vitality score 13.3/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 32 % of the 15,351 communes of a similar size.
Compare this with communes of a similar size. The score measures how well a place is served relative to its own size band, and larger communes score higher as a rule — so it reads meaningfully against another village, and misleadingly against a town.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 16 days a year at or above 30 °C and 61 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the CASTELNAU MAGNOAC weather station, 10.1 km away at 298 m; the village itself is at 462 m. [11]
The village sits 164 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.7 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 4 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at CASTELNAU MAGNOAC, 10.1 km away at 298 m, over 30 summers. [11]
That station sits 164 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 868 mm of rain a year, spread over 112 days — about 7.8 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at CASTELNAU MAGNOAC, 10.1 km away at 298 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

…and in much the same climate
The same match on size and services, narrowed to communes whose summers, winters and summer humidity are all close to Arné's. All three are required, so this section is absent for the 11.8 % of communes with no humidity station near enough to measure: two temperature axes alone cannot tell a muggy coast from a dry one.
