Here we are just on the Dordogne, right in the middle between the Auvergne
and the coast, and it's horrible, cold, wet, nasty little cold breeze, and
no respite in the offing for the rest of the week. *It's usually really
nice this time of year and sometimes really, really hot. There have been
flash floods and disastrous storms all over the southern half of France in
this week. *What's stuck and how can it be shifted?


grrrrrr.

Same here in the Correze. *I think it's the beginning of an onward
(and cooling) trend, personally, and don't expect it to improve any
time soon. *Maybe a bit more settled in July and August, but there
wont be any extended, extreme heat, particularly for us in the west.

Kate. if you aren't already aware, there's quite a good French meteo
discussion group here, which I keep up with:

Incidentally is Catalonia getting some unusual (more changeable than
normal) weather ATM? Reason I ask is it's not a million miles away
from that part of France and I'm going there in three weeks. Guess
it's too far south for any real wet weather but maybe more
thunderstorms in the mountains than normal and a bit cooler?
