7th day when we reach over 20c for my part near Paris , and 5days in a row over 20c really getting warm this month of May March Today right on 21c a bit less than previous days and top temp so far for March an impressive 23.6c on the 16th which was a daily record since 1880, would had been on the 15th it would have been the warmest temp for a first half of March.

Hazy here in Paris and a warning has been issued for strong pollution and speed limits have been put down by 20kms per hour on all roads in the whole of Paris area. Radars take that into account!!!meaning all drivers caught just above the usual speed limits will get tickets anyway on their way!!! i don't care as i don't have a car!!! No wind at all and temp nearing 21c already .We will probably go above 22C as still rising quite nicely now.

Third day of May March where we go well over the 20c mark in Paris today with a top temp of 21c Started sunny , late afternoon high clouds almost blocking the sun but they quickly went away. Only the minimum reminds us we are not in summer with a low of 7c at nearest Météo-France station near me I had 5c! Park near my home is getting really dry!!

Well we just have to hope that summer will bring some nice thundery showers and lightning with it!!!summer? are we not in summer yet?????20cs or more forecasted for the next 7days in Paris someone can tell me we are not in summer?

some astonishing temps in Canada and nothreastern Usa.Srping is well under way over there!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great day here in Paris with top temp reaching 23.5c and daily record ; Not saying much see the map Paris area was near the 25c pocket:

well here you can see a pocket of 25c which was near the greatest Paris areea we were close to have a 25c.A 25.6c was recorded in Nemours which is about 35 miles south east of Paris.

Well am at work and not enjoying it though but hopefully will a bit after work . Just did enjoy my lunch out and parcs were all full!!!!!!!!!!

But temp still rising so may not be the end of it .Splendid day here !!!! Sorry guys.

I know it is only just anecdotic but we have just broke a daily record in Paris at 21.4c previous highest temp for a 15th march was in 1884!!!!!. Only one day before a 15th march was higher than this and it was on the 11th March 1880 at 22.5c ( not sure if that really counts).

well not far from summer temps, uk average that is!!! in Southwest France : the Drought is getting really serious in the south It is to note that on Friday this warm will reach Paris area nearing 22c on Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just returned from a 2 days business trip to Strasbourg near Germany and clear skies all the way on the ride on the train . Hazy though here in Paris and when i left Strasbourg.I was not in Paris yesterday but it was better than today as not hazy as today.Tomorrow certainly will be a splendid day nearing 18c and friday we could get our first 20c or over maybe!!!!

Don't know about my favorite one for me but if a month like August 2003 comes back i will try( i emphasize on try) to enjoy it if i get air cond in my flat , at work and always catch an air con train. I remember i was doing the contrary to what we all do in summer .When waking up i immediately closed windows and shutters even at 7 am before going to work Was back 2hours before sunset but was keeping my flat all shut from outside till well after 11 pm . Also i was just starting to enjoy outside just really around 11pm!Certainly i was not staying more than 3mins under the sun when out for lunchtime. But then at same time as a weather lover was glad to go trough it and hope to get one month like that again!!!crazy me!!!!!!

For my area ( Orly Airport near Paris and not Paris as usually 1c above) 20c : 25th March 25c : 27th April 30c : 15th june 35c : Somewhere early July. Not unusual to see 20c late march here . Last few yeas we have been used to first 25c in April like 2007 then 2008 a near miss at 24.7c then 2010 and 2011 so 3 in a row???? 30c : all june months have seen a 30c plus since 2001 exept 2008.( did not checked if 30c hapenned earlier than june) 35c has been reached last year that is 2011 and in 2009 ,2006 , 2003 and 2002 then near miss in 2010 and 2005 2004 and 2001 ( 1c or less 2001 for a tiny 0.1c!!!!) So it is not so unusual Ps Paris Station is a bit warmer than Orly Airport so probably 35c been reached more years than Orly.

It is the same for my area may be even worse : even with the last couple of days on 23rd 12.2c and on the 24th an impressive 15.9c for my location, yesterday 10.9c We are still up to the 25th February at an average max of 4.4c and average low of -2.6c Really the cold wave saved IT ALL!!!!!!!! Ps just about Friday ( 23rd ) evening there was still some tiny layer of ice left on lakes ( in shades that is) !!!
