Brussels on Sunday 18th March 2018

Mainly cloudy again, but brighter than yesterday with a few brief sunny intervals. Dry except for a light snow shower around 09.15 local time this morning. Freezing night and day: moderate ENE wind decreased in the evening.

Yesterday's lying snow has now mostly disappeared through the effect of the warm ground, despite the air temperature staying below 0°C.
