The rain was very heavy and the damp very persistent for at least 6-8 weeks in Italy. Early this month people in different regions, including Puglia, were worried about mold and an early, crummy harvest. They're not betting much on 2007. 2006 wasn't too great in most of Italy for similar reasons (in August). The weather's warmed up again but of course these conditions make hail a bigger threat than ever. Some drought. The rain was very heavy and the damp very persistent for at least 6-8 weeks in Italy.

Most of Europe has had a drought this year, so it is interesting to hear your comment re France.Maybe it is more limited to the coastal and maritime climatic regions such as Bordeaux?
