Daytime temperatures were very high, sometimes even too hot to be comfortable. However, the evenings were pleasantly cool, ideal for terraces. Be sure to wear sunscreen and hydrate!
WesselIt was around 10 degrees so warm clothing was mandatory. There were also rainy days, so an umbrella came in handy. Not exactly the best weather for driving around town.
QuintyThe temperature during the day was not too high, which was ideal for long walks. In the evening it was slightly cooler, but still pleasant. A few rainy days, but they were refreshing.
