Yes maybe I forgot! But it seemed to rain endlessly in June. For me 3 months is a good summer. 2 months is too little. | Quote: | |  | | | 25? More like over 30C day after day after day. About the longest 8-9 weeks of my life. So glad when it ended. What little rain we did get only made the humidity worse and did nothing to actually bring the temperature down a bit. | | | | | |

I don't think in the last 20 years that there has been such bad weather this year in Switzerland in June-maybe El Nino?

Visitors arriving from California, and more next week form CA and Britanny- and its cold and pouring with rain on and off.
Let's hope the weather will be better for next week-end and La Fête de l'Absinthe in Boveresse- as visitors who are great absinthe fans are coming from all over the world- but the forecast isn't good http://www.fetedelabsinthe.ch/ |

Now La Nina will most likely cause some problems in the late summer or fall but this is not yet certain. It might be a very good winter for skiers |

This has probably been the worst May/June I have experienced so far in CH, since 1995  .

Well the sun shone for aobut 1 hour so was about to suggest a lovely trip and lunch to Lac St Point- but dark and dingy again. Guests went to Creux-du-Van 2 days ago and saw - nothing!

My two sisters visited over the weekend. We were so lucky, they only experienced one heavy shower on Saturday, it was dry on Sunday except when we were in a cafe then a restaurant, then yesterday we had more rain in Basel, but it was quite exciting crossing a very fast flowing Rhein on the ferry in a heavy downpour!
