Montreuil sits in the Paris metropolitan region along the Seine river basin, where a temperate oceanic climate keeps rainfall fairly moderate and evenly spread across the year.
East of central Paris, the city’s flood risk is shaped more by drainage capacity during storms than by the Seine directly. The Seine’s slow, gradual response to rainfall means river flooding here typically develops over days rather than hours, as seen in the major floods of 2016 and 2018, though intense summer storms can still cause rapid local street flooding.
