Bruges isn't very far from SE England, so the Met Office's forecast for
that region of the UK should give a fair guide:

On many occasions, yes, but not always. I think you are missing the
"mini-heatwave" we are getting today and tomorrow

UK Outlook for Tuesday 6 Jul 2010 to Thursday 15 Jul 2010:

Southeast
England may remain dry throughout, but there is a low risk of some
thundery showers towards the weekend. Temperatures are expected to be
warm or very warm.

Based on that, I'd say it's likely to be mainly warm and sunny, but with
a risk of thundery showers on the Friday.

Seems a reasonable assessment on the basis of the SE England forecast
you quoted. In a hesitant westerly situation, we are of course even
more sheltered from any disturbed weather than SE England.

If your French or Flemish is up to it, I imagine that Colin could
provide a link to the relevant Belgian weather service forecast.

If you ask again next Sunday or Monday, it should be possible to be more
confident, as your trip is currently still six to nine days away.

Yes. I will keep an eye on this and post again later in the weekend.
