Clear blue skies: The Netherlands will see plenty of sun this week

Been missing some gorgeous, sunny weather? Well, we don’t know about “gorgeous” (it’s still winter, after all!), but sunny weather is definitely on its way. 🌞

In fact, according to Buienrader meteorologist Leander de Wit, we can expect completely different weather from the overcast greyness we’ve had so far.

Here comes the sun, doo-doo, doo-doo 🎶

Did someone say sun? Talking to RTL Nieuws, de Wit said that coastal regions can definitely expect quite a bit of it over the following days, with moderate temperatures of 5 to 6 degrees Celsius.

Today, in particular, is predicted to gift the coast nearly a full day of sunshine, with barely any cloud cover. ☀️

Regions in the east and southeast, however, will have to exercise some patience, as they may see the occasional burst of sunshine through cloud cover.

These areas will have to wait till Tuesday or Wednesday for uninterrupted sunshine, when the entire country gets a dose of pre-Spring sunniness.

But not for long

By the end of the week, we’re predicted to see less sunshine and a lot more cloud cover.

Tuesday, Friday, and the weekend will still see a bit of sun, but it definitely won’t be the clear weather of the previous days. (We guess the moral of the story is to enjoy it while it lasts. 😉)

Nighttime brings colder weather and frost

In contrast to the pleasant weather expected during the upcoming days, nighttime temperatures may drop to as much as -5 or -6 degrees Celsius.

Up until Thursday, we can also expect light frost (and more moderate frost cover in the east) when the sun goes down.
