Commenting on the weather
문화적 배경
The Dutch are famous for talking about the weather because it changes so often. It is a national pastime. In Flanders, they use the same phrase, but the tone might be slightly more reserved. In Suriname, where it is almost always warm, this phrase is less common as a 'surprise' and more of a daily fact. Afrikaans, a daughter language of Dutch, uses 'Dit is warm vandag', which is nearly identical.
The 'hè' trick
Add 'hè?' at the end of the sentence to turn it into a question. It makes you sound much more natural.
Body vs. Weather
Remember: 'Het is warm' = weather. 'Ik heb het warm' = body. Never mix them up!
