Météo-France, the country’s national meteorological organisation, has issued a yellow vigilance alert in the Alpes-Maritimes region.
The alert concerns expected floods and storms from 6pm this evening (Tuesday 11 March 2025) until midnight.
Tonight’s thunderstorms will be accompanied by intense heavy rain, with 60mm of rainfall expected to accumulate in three hours, the Alpes-Maritimes government said on social media.
“Hail and strong wind gusts are also possible, associated with these storms,” said the Alpes-Maritimes Facebook page.
The strong weather is also bringing a lot of snow to the mountains.
