Friday, Oct. 30, 2026, begins across Villeurbanne beneath a stubbornly overcast sky, holding steady at 6 °C before crawling up to 9 °C by late morning, Ouest-France reported. A light breeze hovering around 5 km/h, with occasional gusts reaching 10 to 15 km/h, shifts direction from north-northwest to west and eventually north. Heavy morning humidity gradually recedes as the hours pass, signaling a subtle atmospheric shift for the region.
Afternoon Clearing Give Way to Evening Radiation Fog
The early afternoon weather builds on that morning improvement. Total cloud cover breaks apart, yielding a largely clear sky by late afternoon. Temperatures nudge upward between 10 °C and 12 °C before cooling back toward 11 °C, while humidity climbs again as daylight fades. By the evening of Friday, Oct. 30, 2026, temperatures drop more decisively from 11 °C down to 7 °C by the end of the night.
Those clearing skies invite radiation fog to settle over the commune after 8 p.m. Winds die down from a weak 10 km/h at 6 p.m. to nearly calm conditions, punctuated by occasional 5 km/h gusts. High humidity levels linger, sharpening the evening chill.
Into the Weekend: Stable Dampness and Saturday Warm-Up
The damp atmosphere persists into the early hours of Saturday, Oct. 31, 2026. Temperatures hold steady near 6 °C without significant drops until dawn. Clouds return in a uniform blanket overhead, offering no notable breaks of sunlight. Winds remain negligible through the early hours before picking up slightly around 4 a.m., blowing from the west-northwest at 5 km/h with minimal gusts.
Saturday daytime conditions maintain that cool baseline early on, with morning readings staying between 4 °C and 6 °C. Temperatures recover modestly by mid-afternoon, reaching 10 °C to 11 °C under winds shifting from northwest to north at 5 to 10 km/h, with occasional gusts touching 25 km/h. High morning humidity gradually burns off as the cloud deck gives way to clearer afternoon skies.
