I read somewhere that Basel gets the weather funneled up the Rhone valley from the Mediterranean, which attributes to our perfect weather.
Just been out for a run and the heavens opened! I'm wet! Hopefully the summer will return next week.
September and even October usually seem to be the best months here. So if we've had summer and they want to bring on September next week, that's fine by me.
That's called "sweat", dear.
The best one of the past 3 decades was in 2003, with June, July and August having had only minimal rain. And there were quite good ones around 1960 . 2006 was good in May, June and July, but August and September were cold and rainy.
The present rainy weather is good for 1st August as there will be no restrictions against the fireworks
