Good news first: The Water Management Authority has officially declared the end of the flood alert phase, citing a diminished risk of flooding as the meteorological conditions stabilise. This announcement, made early Friday morning, follows the passing of the heaviest rainfall the day before.
Looking ahead, the weather forecast promises a more favourable outlook in the coming days.
Saturday is forecasted to continue the trend of mild weather, with temperatures potentially reaching up to around 20°C despite cloudy skies.
The bad news is the high levels of Sahara dust making its way across Europe, which will also cover Luxembourg skies. This will be especially prevalent on Sunday.
Sunday begins with temperatures between 11-13°C in the morning and reaching 19-21°C in the afternoon. Light showers may make a return early next week.
Across the border in France, similar weather patterns are predicted, with slightly higher temperatures. As the forecast indicates a temporary respite from inclement weather, it is advisable to make the most of the forthcoming sunny intervals and above-average temperatures, as more unstable weather conditions may return in the following week.
In neighbouring Belgium, the Royal Meteorological Institute warns of passing light rain during the day. However, once the precipitation subsides, dry conditions are expected to prevail, accompanied by sunny spells initially in the west before spreading to the central regions of the country.
