Default Heavy snow showers in Brussels

Brussels on Tuesday 28th February

Sleet and then wet snow until late morning. Dry subsequently with a few
bright intervals until early afternoon. Fairly heavy shower of snow grains
around 13.30 local time followed by a spell of light to moderate wet snow
which lasted until late afternoon. Patchy snow cover on grass and soil but
it was short-lived on hard surfaces.

Cloud broke again late afternoon with bright intervals before dusk. Shower
of heavy, driving snow just after 18.00 reduced visibility briefly to fog
level and created a general snow cover within minutes, some of which has
persisted through the evening.

Moderate SW to W wind veered WNW to NW in the afternoon.

Brussels Uccle 3.5°C - overnight minimum 1.0°C - and 5 mm rainfall.
Brussels Airport 4.0°C - overnight minimum 1.1°C - and 8 mm.
