Default Paris airfields closed due weather

Just had a NOTAM issued by French ATC to say that both Paris Charles
De Gaulle and Orly will be closed from 1900 tonight until 0900
tomorrow due to the storm "Quentin" - that's going to have a BIG
impact on airline operators over the next 24 hours......

I don't recall this even happening in recent years, even when winds of
similar strength were forecast.
