That's because since New Year's Day the sun has only been seen for a grand total of 4 minutes in the skies over the French capital.
And that's apparently the gloomiest start to the year since 1990.
The average for the first week of the year is around 2 hours, according to BFM TV.
So, why exactly has it been such a dreary few days in Paris?
Well apparently it's all down to an anticyclone which has pushed moisture and clouds down.
