Already the day before, Tuesday evening, the Basque Country had been affected for the first time. The firefighters intervened about thirty times for floods and cables or materials that have fallen to the ground.
This Wednesday, it was the coast again that suffered the first thunderstorms. Especially in the Urt, Bardos and Bidache sector. The firefighters intervened at least ten times at the end of the afternoon, but the damage, due to hail, were numerous.
Then from 5 p.m., it was Béarn’s turn to be hit by several stormy cells, taking corridors, from south to north, passing through Orthez, the Agglo Paloise or the East Béarn. The size of the hailstones was able to vary, their shape too.
The hailstones fell to Assat.

Several episodes of hail were noted in North Béarn, in the plain of Nay. Shortly before 8 p.m., it was the city of Pau who knew her hail.
Few lightnings accompanied these bad weather, with the exception of the surroundings of Orthez and North East-Béarn, before the thunderstorms took the direction of the Landes and the Gers.
During the day, the traffic of several trains was disrupted, lines on the side of the Basque Country, as well as between Puyoô and Dax.
According to Météo France, vigilance was still put at least until 9 p.m. on Wednesday, but there was no more vigilance activated for the Pyrénées-Atlantiques for this Thursday
