What's the weather where you are?

Croatia, Pelješac, very hot (31°C/88℉) this days. Unusual temperature for this time of year. This temp is normal for June, not for April.
 
Yup here in Spalatto del Dalmazzia we're having the Best Summertime April like - ever. Bache Beach is crowded with tourists and local youth. And not only there but i hear people are bathing all over The Eastern Adriatic Coast. Officially saewater temp is 19°C but it is rather colder away from shallows...
 
The third warmest April ever ended with a thrust of severe thunderstorms moving from South to North over the country, causing widespread flooding especially in the South-East (Limburg province) but also elsewhere (Amsterdam, Zaandam, Rotterdam and Tilburg among others).

Twee na warmste maand april ooit gemeten (Dutch only)
Translation:
Third-warmest month of April ever measured

DE BILT (ANP) - Despite the wet ending, the month of April was one of the warmest ever. The average temperature recorded by the KNMI in De Bilt was 12.2 degrees Celsius. This makes April 2018 the third warmest since the start of measurements in 1901. Only in 1965 and 1998 was this month even warmer with 13.1 degrees.

On April 7, De Bilt measured more than 20 degrees for the first time this year and April 19 was the first day with more than 25 degrees. In total, the month had nine warm days (20 degrees or warmer) compared to three normally, and three summer days (25 degrees or warmer). Summer heat in De Bilt (or in the Netherlands) does not usually occur so early in the year.

Yesterday we had a couple showers with some thundering in Split, Dalmazzia which finally interrupted The April Heatwave - but in between those it was very hard to breath, under that low overcast canopy... Today the air is not so heavy on lungs and Boorah (Hoorah! Hoorah! Hoorah!!! :-[) is forecasted for this weekend. After that The Summer is to continue - i only guess...:knitting:

Again, the Netherlands had to cope with plenty of rain especially in the North-Eastern part of the country. In Drenthe they received an entire month's worth of rain in a single evening.
Heavy rains caused many problems in large parts of northern Netherlands on Sunday night. On Twitter local residents complained about flooded streets and buildings, and even water streaming out of the toilet.

Drenthe saw a total of 63 millimeters of rain on Sunday evening, RTL Nieuws reports (video). Usually the whole Netherlands gets 61 millimeters of rain in the entire month of May.

Another Heat wave just ended this morning in Split, Dalmatia - after short storm with thunders and little rain. Inner Croatia saw some pretty serious storms than here, but no significant damages reported. Temperature, on the other hand has dropped significantly (almost 10°C) and will stay like that during days to follow. Accordin' to meteo services The Summer will be back at the end of week...

Weird, almost no rain fell where I live and we could do with some rain. Everything is dry here and the dew in the mornings has already evaporated. I used to like the heat. Not anymore. But as Laura said it will change.

Lyrics:

How many times have you woken up and prayed for the rain?
How many times have you seen the papers apportion the blame?
Who gets to say?
Who gets to work and who gets to play?
I was always told at school, everybody should get the same.

How many times have you been told if you don't ask you don't get?
How many lads have taken your money? Your Mother said you shouldn't bet.
Who has the fun?
Is it always a man with a gun?
Someone must have told you if you work too hard you can sweat?

There's always the sun.
Mmmm
There's always the sun.
Always, always, always the sun.

How many times have the weathermen told you stories that made you laugh?
You know its not unlike the politicians and the leaders, when they do things by halves.
Who gets the job?
Of pushing the knob.
That's what responsibility you draw straws for if you're mad enough.

In Southern Scandinavia, May has been like Summer. The old record for the average temperatur willl be broken by almost 1 degree Celsius. The exact numbers are still to come, but have a look at the temperatures in Europe for May 29, 2018 at 14:00 local time listed by ww..gismeteo.ru/maps/eur/temp/ Spain and Southern France is colder. It must be a major imbalance.

It's been raining and hailing on a daily basis in Spain, along with thunderstorms and power outages. The forecasts are not promising either.
 
Is the onset of the volcanic summer? Like what was witnessed back in the states in the summer of Jun 15, 1991 with Mt. Pinatubo

It always starts out fairly nice in the AM. But can and has turned quickly with cooler temps and lots of rain, as it is now at this local.

The snow is on the melt within the mountains with some rivers running high.

Here's that system that blew in on Sunday
