The next day there was glorious weather everywhere in Europe.

We did have some rain this morning, but it stopped as quickly as it began. Lots of sunshine right now. But they are predicting rain coming in from the West, and lower temperatures for the next days! The temperature in my office is OK right now, but I'm dreading the train ride home ...
Some more water for me
P.S. Yesterday a couple of thousand of commuters stranded in Ghent because of problems with the train infrastructure and two defect trains on the rails, and they announced the first phase of the contingency plan. Lots of people got dehydraded, so they started distributing water. Of course they couldn't reach us on the trains (the trains stopped riding for 15 minutes, and then another 30 minutes), because they are not allowed to open the doors while the train is not at a station. They're saying the people stuck on those old trains had to endure temperatures of 45°C and more

No wonder I felt disgusting when I finally got home.
