Tourcoing sits on the flat northern plain of France near the North Sea and English Channel, where an oceanic climate keeps rainfall fairly steady through the year with few dramatic extremes.
Sitting alongside Roubaix near the Belgian border, the city shares the same flat-plain flood considerations as its neighbor. Because the terrain is so flat, the region’s main flood risk comes from prolonged rain saturating the ground and canals rather than sudden runoff, and radar helps track the slower-moving systems typical of this coast.
