By Sunday, temperatures will drop significantly, barely climbing above 15 degrees Celsius. The days following will not see a return to the twenties, and while clouds will dominate the skies, rain will be scarce. This pattern raises questions about Belgium’s changing climate and its impact on daily life.
What does this mean for Belgians, especially after an unusually dry two months? Let’s explore the implications and what to expect next.
Is Belgium witnessing a new weather norm? The recent data suggests a shift away from the classic “kwakkelweer” to extremes of either sun or rain. Key points to consider include:
- Western Belgium suffers most from prolonged drought, with rainfall since March 2 at record lows.
- Ukkel recorded only 27.8 mm of precipitation, the lowest in 132 years.
- March and April saw unprecedented sunshine hours, breaking a decade-old record.
- The dry spell threatens both agriculture and natural ecosystems during critical growth periods.
As Belgium transitions into a cooler and cloudier phase, residents and policymakers alike must ask: How can we best prepare for these shifting weather patterns? Staying informed and proactive will be essential to navigate the evolving climate landscape.
