At dawn on January 24th 2009 gale force winds swept through Southern France.
Storm "Klaus" built up in the Bay of Biscaye during the night and hit the Aquitaine coastline
with gale force winds and heavy rainfalls. Drenched soils and winds over 170kmh took a
heavy toll on the largest of french forests with over half of the trees uprooted or broken.
