The lowlands will build up to warmer spring weather, and the sun will shine bright with higher temperatures after the weekend, reports Het Parool

Don’t put away your raincoats yet

Before we finally reach spring, the coming days will first be a little rainy with cooler temperatures. 

While the sun will break through the clouds, it will rain at night for the next few days. Temperatures will most likely not rise above 13 degrees.

The sunshine is so close

Keep your sunglasses and picnic blankets close, though. 

Throughout the weekend, temperatures will rise to welcome cloudless skies and warmer weather starting on Monday. 

After the weekend, some cities in the Netherlands will most likely reach the first 20 degrees of the year.

The nights will still be cold, with possible freezing inland, but the days will warm right back up quickly.

2023 spring is making its way

While the sunshine is quite certain, the wind in the coming days is less predictable. Depending on the wind, temperatures may be stuck at around 13-17 degrees if there is a strong wind.
