LEUVEN, Friday. — Leuven may look for fog this day, with the mercury climbing to about 9° before sinking to 1° by night. That is about what a November day usually brings here, where the long-run average high is 10°.

July is the warmest month here at 24°, February the coldest at 1°, and August the wettest with 80 mm. The best months to ride in are June and September.
