Toulon (Var), 16.0°C (highest minimum)

The city of Toulon is home to the largest military harbour in France

Toulon was once a beautiful city, but it was almost totally destroyed during WW2;
then, they built a large amount of these ugly concrete buildings


Not everything is beautiful in the South of France...

Pic du Midi de Bigorre (Hautes-Pyrénées), -9.6°C (lowest minimum at any height)

It's not often that the Aiguille du Midi (Alps) is beaten in this category. Very rainy and very cool conditions in the South-West of France allowed the Pic du Midi de Bigorre (Pyrenees) to win the top place.

Nancy (Meurthe-et-Moselle), 74.0 mm (wettest)

A beautiful city. Now, some of its neighbourhoods have been devastated by the strong storm of last night. A lot of people have lost everything. A thought for them. :(

Hehe, yeah, that's something which doesn't happen often, but it did yesterday... and perhaps even today! :)

Coming soon: a new thread that will include exhaustive summaries of all my previous monthly threads from January 2011 onwards. I want to make two complete files for years 2011 and 2012. :)

I'm publishing the table as it is, but I have, however, a little doubt on the highest rainfall. Indeed, I'm suspecting an error for Château-Arnoux-Saint-Auban on Ogimet (Saint-Auban-sur-Durance, as it is written on this website). If anyone can verify deeper than I did, I would be grateful. :)

Warmest night so far in France: the lowest minimum under 500 m. asl was the mildest so far with 9.3°C, which means that the whole territory (in plains) didn't have temperatures below 9.3°C during the entire night. The warmest minimum was also the warmest so far, with 23.3°C.
