Rain showers will start to spread into the Le Mans area beginning tonight. Periods of showers are likely to continue through Saturday as a low pressure system sits over the Bay of Biscay. The most likely period for showers on Saturday will be in the afternoon and evening, during the opening hours of the race. There could be around a quarter of an inch (around 6 mm) of rain that falls on Saturday.
Saturday night should have a lower chance of showers in the area. Coverage will be more scattered, and showers will be lighter. The threat of thunderstorms will also diminish. Scattered showers will continue around northern France through Sunday, and there may be some breaks in the clouds that allow some sun to briefly shine through.
I will be travelling on vacation with family tomorrow, so I won't be able to post radar updates as I usually do. I recommend this site to monitor radar - https://www.meteo60.fr/radars-precipitations-pluie-france.php
