A thick layer of snow but which did not resist the mildness of the weekend. “A lot has really happened in the last few days, and it was quite impressive, in fact.he admits. We gained a lot of degrees between Saturday and Sunday, and this happened during the night, too. On Sunday, we broke the daily record in Uccle with 17.5 degrees. This is linked to a depression which sucked in very mild air from equatorial Africa.“
A contrast that can occur in the month of November, “but it is the intensity of the heat that is impressive. The cold snap we experienced was nothing exceptional for the season, but the mild weather was. The excesses are always in one direction, in recent years“.
Weather: rain to start the week
Still speaking of excess, the rain and snowfall of the last few days will have further increased the annual precipitation meter. “The absolute record is 1088mm in Uccle, and we are already at 1082 this Monday. Normally, the annual record will be broken on Wednesday, a month in advance“, he whispers.
Exactly, what should we expect in the coming days? “We will see a “decline” in temperatures from this Tuesday, which will be a calm day. On Wednesday, we expect rain, but also a strong gust of wind. The risk of storm cannot be ruled out, this will need to be monitored. Then, we will return to a good week that is quite cold, but not excessively so. It will be freezing some nights, but it will be quite nice and bright during the day. For the rest of December, there is still great uncertainty, but we would rather be moving towards mildness, without too much rain“, he concludes.
