Grab your shades: the Netherlands will see sunny weather this week

As wild as it sounds, fair weather for fun in the sun may actually be on the cards for the Netherlands this week! ☀️

According to the KNMI (the Royal Dutch Meteorological Institute), we can expect relatively dry and sunny weather over the next few days.

The week starts off sunny, dry, and cool

Both today and tomorrow are expected to have frequent blasts of sunshine between the odd period of cloud cover.

Temperatures will hover around 6 to 7 degrees Celsius during the day, and drop to just below zero during the night.

Even though today promises to remain dry throughout, tomorrow night could bring the eastern part of the country some light rain. 🌧️

Wednesday will be the sunniest day this week

Whilst Wednesday may be known for her dark humour on the Netflix show of the same name, this week’s Wednesday will bring nothing but sun, sun, and more sun.

You’ll definitely want to grab the sunblock, but you may want to layer up as well, as the maximum temperature will only go up to 7 degrees Celsius.

Less sun during the latter half of the week

Thursday and Friday are expected to see less sunshine, with cloudier weather creeping into the picture.

The temperature is set to grudgingly climb to 8 degrees Celsius during the day, but will remain above freezing during the night.

Cloudy weather predicted for Saturday and Sunday

As all good things (unfortunately) have to come to an end, we’ll be waving doei to our lovely, sunny week with a very cloudy weekend. 🌥️

Packing an umbrella or putting on a parka will be on the cards as well, as the forecast also predicts some light rain.
