Precipitation in mm by department in France in 2021
Here is a map that reveals the height of precipitation for each department of France for the year 2021. This data comes from Météo France. We note that it rains the most (and extremely) in Guyana, followed by Mayotte, Réunion, Martinique, then in the Alps, in Brittany, near the Pyrenees, and in certain places in the center of France.
What these data do not say is how frequent the precipitation is. If it only rains heavily for a few days (soil erosion), this will not have the same impact on the environment as if it rains regularly.
