Temperatures will be dipping to –4°C in parts of the Alpes-Maritimes and the Var.

After weeks of unusually mild, almost spring-like weather, residents will need to reach for coats, gloves, hats and scarves. Météo France is forecasting conditions worthy of January, describing the incoming chill as a “polar cold spell.”

According to La Chaîne Météo, tomorrow, Saturday 22nd of November is likely to become the third-coldest day of the year.

Winter has arrived early on the Riviera. Stay warm!
