From September 29 to October 6, Predict Services was on hand to assist the organizers of the fantastic MED MAX I Occitanie – Saïdia Resorts sailing race in the Mediterranean, to ensure that it ran smoothly during a period when risky Mediterranean phenomena are commonplace.
A closed sea, the Mediterranean set a new record for average temperature this summer (28.9°C), and is a hotspot for observing climate change and the resulting risks.
Faced with this challenge, Predict is working to set up the “Early Warning for Med” system as part of the European Gobeyond project, which is part of the drive to implement a global early warning system called for by the UN and the WMO.
Predict is also supporting the Moroccan Ministry of the Interior in the development of a warning and early action system: the Vigirisque Project.
Predict was also keen to accompany the MED MAX, linking two shores of the Mediterranean from the town of Grau-du-Roi in France (a town that Predict has been assisting for many years) to Saïdia in Morocco.
On Wednesday September 25, Alix Roumagnac took part in a conference on the Mediterranean climate and associated risks.
