The Goretti storm is set to hit the west and north of France. Due to expected strong gusts, Paris and the entire Île-de-France region are on orange alert for high winds from Thursday, January 8, 2026, starting at 10 p.m. According to Météo France, southwesterly winds will blow strongly throughout Thursday night into Friday morning, with gusts reaching "sustained speeds of 90 to 95 km/h over large areas, and locally hitting 100 km/h or more." The weather service warns that "this episode is particularly notable for the duration of the strong winds, which will persist above 90 km/h for about ten hours."
Winds expected to sweep through the Île-de-France region could cause falling branches or weakened trees, potentially leading to disruptions in public transportation.

Transilien SNCF has issued a warning: "some lines might experience delays or suspensions from 6 PM on Thursday, January 8, until noon on Friday, January 9, 2026." Given these circumstances, travelers are advised to limit their trips if possible. If travel is necessary, make sure to check train schedules before heading to the station.
