Default Cold and raw day in Brussels with lying snow: bright afternoon

Brussels on Monday 2nd January 2017

Overcast and very misty start with a general snow cover of up to 1 cm
after the overnight snowfall. Brighter and clearer towards midday, and
sunny for much of the afternoon: some cloud mid-afternoon. Cold and
raw with a light SW to W wind.

Only patchy lying snow now left here this evening.

Brussels Uccle 0.7°C – overnight minimum -1.1°C – and 4 mm rainfall
Brussels Airport 4.3°C – overnight minimum -0.3°C – and 2 mm


A surprisingly big difference in the maximum. Is that because Uccle had
a greater snow cover?
