What's the weather where you are?

[Gaby]

It is 31 degrees Celsius in Northern-Central Spain, a region famous for its "coldness".

I drove through the Northern region of Spain last weekend and there were localized storms here and there. I never seen so much water fall down from the sky while I was driving. Not even the worst tropical rain comes close to what I saw. It was as if someone was pouring down a giant bucket of water. Those were no raindrops, it was literally sheets of rain. Lots of it.

Around 20 to max 25 C during the day in Macedonia. But nights and early morning its still a little chilly. Temperature can fall down to 10-12 C. So still bellow average temperatures for this part of the year.

Temperature : 29 °C/84 °F.
Humidity : 50 %.
Wind : 9 mph/14 km/h.

It's kind of very hot, and heavy here, but it's fair for the season in south France : Marseille.

Storm in UK brings a funnel cloud, and apparently another that uproots a bouncy castle, not exactly normal for summer - videos at the links:

Noah’s Plan B: ‘Aqua Dam’ saved Texas home from flooding
Published time: 12 Jun, 2016
https://www.rt.com/usa/346379-aqua-dam-texas-flooding/

Those looking for protection during a flood of Biblical proportions can now use an earthly solution that could make sandbags obsolete.
Andre Wagner saved his house from the overflowing waters of the Brazos River with his new $8,300 Aqua Dam, which he says was well worth the money.
With the help of two other men, he filled the 400-foot-diameter, 30-inch-high plastic tube with water, creating a circular dam around his home.

“I was the crazy guy. Everybody was kinda going by, laughing at me.

But today they are really impressed with this AquaDam,” he told KHOU 11 News.

Here it is, the middle of June, and we haven't really had a serious spring yet, much less a summer in South Central France. We've had a few days here and there of sunshine and warm temps, even a couple of hot days (not REAL hot, though), but mostly just day after day after day of cloudy gray skies, cool temps, and rain off and on. Right now it is 17 C, (65 F) gray clouds, and spitting rain.

Sur la Côte d'Azur, dans le Sud Est de la France, nous avons beau temps, soleil et températures agréables, pas beaucoup de pluie...
Je crois bien que nous sommes les seuls encore aujourd'hui à voir le soleil...

On the French Riviera, in the South East of France, we have good weather, sunshine and pleasant temperatures, not much rain. . .
I believe we are the only ones still to see the sun. . .

Very similar in the west Macedonia also. A heavy torrential rain this morning and a current temperature of 12C. Little warmer is foretasted for the end of this week.
But even then ,nights are still chilly for this time of the year.

Up here in southern Norway summer has definitely arrived. Warmer and less rain than usual. There has been close to two weeks now with warm, sunny weather, and hardly any rain or persistent cloud cover. Today the temperature in the shade is 24 C, and there have been warmer days than this also.

Same temps here as well. With light drizzles or more like a fine mist of rain.

Almost like living in the clouds, with the sun occasionally peeking behind the overcast.

Due to the poor weather in Central Europe, we have had more than two weeks of nice summer in Southern Scandianvia. The meteorologist did not blame Russia, but said the low pressure systems over CE brought warm air from South Eastern Europe. From today however, we are at the same level, more or less, as the rest of Western Europe and it is going to last some time

We probably do not have people from Greenland to speak up on the forum, but if we had, they should, considering that Nuuk Friday the 9th of June could boast a new all time record of 24,8 degrees Celsius. For Greenland that is simply sweltering hot.
