National forecaster Météo France has stated that: “precipitation in the form of snow or icy rain is continuing between Normandy, the Parisian basin and the north east of the country. It is generally slight and is beginning to move away from Normandy.”
Around 1-3cm of snow has fallen in Normandy, Ile-de-France and Champagne, with around 10cm in some areas of Lorraine.
There remains a high risk of icy conditions across all of the departments under an orange alert.
People in affected areas are encouraged to avoid going out if possible and to take a blanket, food and drink with them if they do need to.
