Climate

An average of 9 days a year at or above 30 °C and 42 days at or below 0 °C, over 24 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[13]

Measured at the HARBONNIERES weather station, 6.5 km away at 89 m; the village itself is at 37 m. ^[13]

The village sits 52 m below 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. ^[13]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[13]

Humidity measured at MEAULTE, 8.5 km away at 107 m, over 28 summers. ^[13]

That station sits 70 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[13]

An average of 714 mm of rain a year, spread over 124 days — about 5.8 mm on a day it rains. ^[13]

Rainfall measured at HARBONNIERES, 6.5 km away at 89 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[13]
