=== Climate ===
The climate that characterizes the town is qualified, in 2010, as "french oceanic climate", according to the typology of the climates of France which then had eight major types of climates in mainland France. In 2020, the town comes out of the "ocean climate" type in the classification established by Météo-France, which now only counts, at first glance, five main types of climates in mainland France. This type of climate results in mild temperatures and relatively abundant rainfall (in connection with the disturbances coming from the Atlantic), distributed throughout the year with a slight maximum from October to February.

The climatic parameters that made it possible to establish the 2010 typology include six variables for temperature and eight for precipitation, whose values correspond to the 1971-2000 normal. The seven main variables characterizing the municipality are presented in the box below.

With climate change, these variables have evolved. A study carried out in 2015 by the Directorate General for Energy and Climate supplemented by regional studies predicts that the average temperature should increase and the average rainfall decrease, with, however, strong regional variations. These changes can be seen on the nearest Météo-France meteorological station, in the town of Balleroy-sur-Drôme, commissioned in 2007 and which is 11&nbsp;km away as the crow flies where the average annual temperature is 11.2&nbsp;°C and the amount of precipitation is 927.2&nbsp;mm for the period 1981–20109. On the nearest historical meteorological station, in the town of Carpiquet, commissioned in 1945 and 33&nbsp;km away, the average annual temperature changes from 10.9&nbsp;°C for the period 1971–2000 to 11.2&nbsp;°C for 1981–2010, then 11.5&nbsp;°C for 1991–2020.
