If that isn’t enough for tropical-summer lovers, meteorologists say that temperatures might even hit a whopping 30 degrees in some places.
Het wordt weer een zonovergoten dag met in de ochtend wat bewolking in het noordwesten en in de middag bewolking dat vanuit Duitsland het land binnendrijft. https://t.co/I4xmUZe8dn pic.twitter.com/r6wSNzp963

Translation: “It will be another sun-drenched day with some clouds in the northwest in the morning and clouds drifting into the country from Germany in the afternoon.”
Although it’s quite late in the year for the first summer temperatures, we’ll be sure to make the most of it and flock to the beaches, lakes, and parks this weekend.
First, cooler temperatures during the week
Unfortunately, it’s not the weekend yet and we need to get through the rest of the week first. (Sigh! 😮💨) In the coming days, temperatures will vary across the Netherlands.
