An episode in the Cévennes is causing intense rainfall on Thursday October 17 and Friday October 18, resulting in rapidly rising rivers in several regions. While six départements, including Lozère and Alpes-Maritimes, are under red alert, Île-de-France remains under orange alert for the risk of rain and flooding, with the exception of Seine-et-Marne, which is under yellow. In Paris, some streets were submerged, and gusts of 52 km/h were recorded, causing disruption to transport services.
