The sunshine this October was particularly generous in Brittany. “With 150 hours of sunshine in Rennes for example. This is the second month of October, the most beautiful since the start of the sun readings” specifies Steven Tual of Météo Bretagne. Whether in Saint-Brieuc or Rennes, the sunshine in this month of October is comparable to last August. But the days are shorter. “We know that the sun rises a little earlier at this time of year and sets a little earlier. However, we have the same sunshine statistics as during the heart of August 2021“.
A beautiful late season
“In October, there were only five days when the weather conditions were bad, this shows that the high pressure has been well established in the region since the beginning of the month.“specifies Steven Tual. In the end, we had a good late season”with these very pleasant temperatures thanks to south-westerly winds“. You have to go back to 2018 and 2016 to have this sweetness in October in Brittany. There were few rainy episodes, “the only anomaly was the Aurora storm which swept across Brittany for a few hours”
The cold shower from this Friday
This month of October, so bright, will end badly. As of this Friday, October 29, conditions will deteriorate. “We will have a real All Saints’ day for this weekend, with a lot of rain and a drop in temperatures” again indicates the Breton forecaster.
