September is the new June: Summer makes ANOTHER comeback this weekend

Just when you thought the heat was dying down, it seems to be flaring up again. Yup, this weekend will bring another bout of Indian summer, on Saturday especially.

Many of us are still basking in the afterglow (or remaining layer of sweat) after last week’s tropical temperatures. The memory of a national heatwave has not yet faded, nor have the temperatures.

Turns out, this weekend is predicted to reach around 25 degrees Celsius on Saturday. That may not be quite as hot as last weekend, but you still want to lather up on SPF.

Ditch the rainjacket

From tomorrow onwards, the temperature will steadily rise, escalating from 21 degrees today to a generous 24 degrees on Friday.

Saturday will provide the peak of heat, at 25 degrees in the centre of the country, whereas Sunday is forecasted at 23 to 24 degrees.

@driplist Trust me when i say that 30+ degrees in the Netherlands is a different type of heat😅 it burnsss #summerinthenetherlands #livinginthenetherlands #netherlands #dutchiescanrelate #lifeinamsterdam #amsterdam #heatwave ♬ original sound – Somi Lynda💕

Apparently, you should enjoy these torrid days while they last because once the weekend passes, autumn is coming.

Yup, the winds will be stronger, and so will the chances of random rain downpours. Monday and Tuesday could potentially leave us drenched with thunderstorms.

Still, Marc de Jong of Buienradar isn’t ruling out the possibility of us being surprised by nice weather again within the course of September. ☀️

Having had her fair share of bike accidents, near-death experiences involving canals, and miscommunications while living here (Swedish and Dutch have deceptively similar words with very different meanings), she hopes to have (and document) plenty more in future.
