The regions of Gironde and Lot-et-Garonne in France are currently under a red vigilance alert for floods due to continued heavy rainfall exacerbated by the arrival of a new storm system from the Gulf of Gascony. The meteorological forecasts predict rainfall accumulations of between 10 to 20 mm, affecting the western parts of the country, which include southern Brittany and the Pays de la Loire areas down to the central regions.

Meanwhile, the storm Nils has begun to calm down, though its effects are still sharply felt on the island of Corsica, where wind gusts have reached between 130 and 150 km/h, with certain locations experiencing even higher winds up to 170 km/h. The regions around Bastia and Porto-Vecchio have reported destructive waves driven by these severe wind conditions, causing additional challenges for local authorities.

As a result of these weather events, regional emergency services continue to prepare for further complications, emphasizing safety measures and potential evacuations. The persistent weather warnings underline the ongoing risks faced by residents in these areas, suggesting that the situation may take time to stabilize as the rain continues and floodwaters rise.
