We're getting plenty of rain and cumulonimbus over here (the Netherlands), these weeks. Maximum temperature is a paltry 17 to 20 degrees C - may was much warmer, with temperatures around 30 degrees C.

Still, rather typical for Dutch summers. :) Things will pick up in july, undoubtedly!

We're getting flooded. Two days of almost non-stop torrential rain. At least it's cooled off to where I need a sweater, but everything in the house feels wet. Oh, everything in the house IS wet. :cry:
