The weather follows a fixed rhythm: sun and heat in the morning, a powerful thunderstorm in the afternoon, steam in the air again by evening. Water parks and air-conditioned shows are the salvation now, and some days are washed out completely. In return the parks are often emptier outside the holiday weeks.
