French translation:mais il a plu pendant toute la deuxième semaine
Explanation:
D'habitude il (y) fait chaud l'été, mais il a plu pendant toute la deuxième semaine... (de nos vacances ?).

It is difficult to be more specific because you don't give a full sentence, but if you mean the second week of a holiday, for example, you could say "il a plu pendant toute la deuxième semaine de mes vacances).
