Eure-et-Loir, Loir-et-Cher and Loiret are under alert for rain and flooding, while Mayenne, Maine-et-Loire, Nièvre, Yonne, Savoie and Isère are concerned by the risk of flooding. The alert has been lifted in the Hautes-Alpes and the Sarthe.

In the other départements under flood alert, Vigicrues mentions a major event for the season on the upstream Yonne, a major flood on the Arc and moderate to fairly heavy flooding downstream on the Romanche in Isère.
