It is already clear that this will be the warmest April at Brussels
Uccle since records began there in 1833.

Average temp. so far is 13.0°C - 4 deg. C above the long-term
average of 9.0°C and even just above the long-term May average of
12.7°C.

Average max. temp. so far is 19.1°C - 6 deg. C above the long-term
average of 13.1°C and well above the average May maximum of 17.2°C.

The Belgian Royal Meteorological Institute is forecasting max. temps
of from 26 to 29°C in Brussels for the rest of the month.

If this comes about, the average maximum for April will be pushed up
to around 20°C - SEVEN degrees above normal and similar to the
average maximum for a typical June !

Yes, this month has been totally insane!

Where has our *usual* spring weather been going, anyway?
