From grey skies to bright sunshine: Expect changeable Dutch weather this week

Plus, one last burst of "summer" weather! 👀

Though you mayn’t assume as much from the bleak, grey sky outside, this week is expected to treat us to some mild autumn weather.

According to Weeronline, this week’s weather is predicted to be a cycle of rain and sunshine. 👇

Say “hoi!” to a rainy Monday

Today (October 21) will likely start off rainier than a TikTok complaining about Dutch weather.

Unfortunate souls in the south and southeast of the country are going to be the first ones to experience a few light showers, before a more intensive deluge passes over during the evening and drenches the rest of us.

Temperatures, thankfully, won’t get too chilly and will hover around 15 to 17 degrees Celsius during the day and 8 to 10 degrees at night.

Tuesday and Wednesday will offer bright sunshine

Sunshine will certainly make up for lost time on Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing slightly hotter and drier weather with it.

Wednesday, in particular, is the perfect day to enjoy spending time outdoors — Weeronline’s forecasts predict clear blue skies and plenty of sunshine.

However, whilst daytime temperatures will average a balmy 16 degrees Celsius, those figures are predicted to plummet to a few degrees above freezing at night.

Thursday will likely offer the balm to Wednesday nighttime chill: temperatures will hit highs of 16 to 19 degrees in most regions, with Limburg forecast to reach an unseasonable 20 degrees.

Expect changeable weather from Friday onwards

They say good things don’t last forever — and that’s especially true of Dutch weather!

Weeronline reports that Friday and Saturday will likely bring cooler and wetter conditions, though we may experience some dry periods on Sunday.
