The first part of the exhibition is an introduction to the work of Météo France ; making observations, forecasting and the science of climatology. The meteorologists are available to talk about their work and answer your questions. Many graphic displays and photographs, items of equipment and a model explaining daily weather observation in 170 international centres explain the techniques used by meteorologists.
You can also see clouds evolving through satellite pictures, and discover the instruments in use, maps, climate statistics and different meteorological phenomena.
