Heatwave coming up!

The weather here in Belgium is really crazy. It goes from cold to warm, from dry to ultra-wet. Two days ago, half of the country drowned under the heavy rainfall caused by various thunderstorms. Now the weather bureau predicts we're getting a heatwave.

The sun is shining already, but it's not very warm yet. A good 21° Celsius, which is lovely - when the wind would go down a bit. Here at the coast it's blowing a right gale. But anyway, it won't rain for at least a week, so we'll be able to go out walking or cycling. And enjoy ice-creams and cool pints when the temperature goes up.

For most kids, the exams are over and it's pretty busy here at the seaside already. The train this morning was full; I was happy to find a place to sit. The owner of the bistro next door is putting out the tables and chairs on her terrace, as she expects of lot of customers. I suppose we'd better book a table for tomorrow.

As of Monday the temperature should go over 30° - and stay that way until Thursday. Will make a nice change from that cold and rainy weather of the past weeks. Will also make the difference less when we travel to Italy at the beginning of July. When we have this hot weather here already, we're prepared!

And how's the weather where you live?
