Rain is expected to make an appearance during Friday's Olympics opening ceremony in Paris, according to officials. Despite the anticipated inclement weather, the ceremony is scheduled to proceed as planned.
The head of MeteoFrance Sport, Alexis Decalonne, expressed concerns about the unfavorable conditions for the opening ceremony. The Paris region has already seen light rain earlier in the day, with meteorologists predicting further rainfall following a brief respite in the afternoon. The likelihood of rain is higher towards the end of the day when the opening ceremony is slated to occur.
