PSG's game at Monaco falls victim to storm alert
Paris Saint-Germain's Ligue 1 match at Monaco on Sunday evening has been called off due to forecast heavy storms.
The fixture "will be postponed to a later date" Monaco announced.
Two French regions, including Alpes-Maritimes which surrounds the principality, were placed on red alert for floods by Meteo France, the French weather service, on Sunday morning.
It said the area faces what it called a "marked Mediterranean episode" of intense storms.
Rainfall could total as much as 200mm (almost eight inches) over the weekend, Meteo France said. It said that it expected coastal areas to be the most affected, with "very significant risks of runoff and overflow from coastal rivers."
