There were 5 days over 30°C, where on average we get 3 during June and on the other end, the low temperature of 2.4 °C on 2nd was the lowest June temperature since 1998.

With another close to average month, the total precipitation we have seen in the first half of the year of 425.4 mm is not that far below the average total of 465.2 mm.
