This article currently says "The region is limited by the frontier with France and Luxembourg". However on http://www.gaumetourisme.be/fr/geographie/index.html it defines the region as being delimited by a north-south line from the "Pays d’Arlon" to the east. Which definition is correct or more widely used? --David Edgar 12:05, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-01-31T12:05:00.000Z","author":"David Edgar","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-David_Edgar-2007-01-31T12:05:00.000Z-Definition_of_area","replies":[]}}-->

I do not agree with this sentence: "Temperatures in this region are often 1°C to 3°C higher than in other parts of Belgium due to a distinctive microclimate."

It is true that Gaume has a somewhat warmer climate than the Ardennes region to its north, but this is not a general rule applying to other parts of Belgium. For instance I am pretty convinced that summer temperatures are rarely higher than those of the Campine/Kempen region, which is pretty warm. What's more, due to its more continental location, temperatures are consistently lower than those in coastal areas during winter.

I suggest to correct the sentence as follows:

"Temperatures in this region are often 1°C to 3°C higher than in the rest of the Luxembourg province due to a distinctive microclimate." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.64.77.138 (talk) 10:03, 22 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-11-22T10:03:00.000Z","author":"158.64.77.138","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-158.64.77.138-2012-11-22T10:03:00.000Z-Climate","replies":["c-Oreo_Priest-2012-11-22T13:19:00.000Z-158.64.77.138-2012-11-22T10:03:00.000Z"]}}-->
