Belgium Weather: Stable Conditions and Slight Warming Expected Mid-June

Following a spell of showers and thunderstorms, Belgium's weather is anticipated to stabilize next week, offering a welcome change for outdoor activities. Meteorologist Pascal Mormal from the Royal Meteorological Institute (IRM) predicts that while the upcoming weekend may still see some instability, particularly in the afternoons with a risk of storms, an improvement is on the horizon.

“

Saturday, we expect a relatively decent first part of the day. Unfortunately, there is still a risk of thunderstorms rather in the afternoon. Sunday, the risk of rain is quite low, but not zero.

Sunday, the risk of rain is quite low, but not zero," Mormal detailed. The early part of next week is expected to remain mixed, with possible showers and temperatures near average.

However, good news is on the way from mid-week. "From Wednesday or Thursday, conditions seem to become more and more stable. The risks of precipitation are decreasing, and temperatures will start to show a small increase," the specialist noted. This shift suggests a return to more pleasant weather, with precipitation signals weakening.

The possibility of a significant heatwave, similar to those experienced elsewhere, is being discussed. While major heat could affect France, with temperatures potentially reaching 30 degrees Celsius or higher, its impact on Belgium is less clear. "The majority scenario currently forecasts temperatures between 22 and 25 degrees Celsius in Belgium by the end of next week. This is slightly above seasonal norms but without excess," Mormal stated. He added that while the heat in France might spill over, it currently seems unlikely, though not impossible, for Belgium.
