Confidence: high.

Better served than 7 % of the 17,629 communes of a similar size.

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 5 days a year at or above 30 °C and 35 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]

Measured at the GODERVILLE weather station, 11.4 km away at 118 m; the village itself is at 136 m. [12]

An average of 1,088 mm of rain a year, spread over 156 days — about 7 mm on a day it rains. [12]

Rainfall measured at BOLBEC, 3.4 km away at 61 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
