Dutch weather can be echt bizarre. After a gloomy spring, the temperatures quickly skyrocketed first into the 20s and then into the 30s, eventually culminating in tropical showers last night.
Today, it seems that the Dutch weather might surprise us with something we haven’t seen this year yet — a tornado (as hard as that is to believe).
The Royal Dutch Meteorological Institute (KNMI) warns against heavy thunderstorms across the country and a tornado this afternoon is “not completely out of the question,” De Telegraaf reports.
Verwachting vandaag en morgen: Perioden met zon en warm. In de loop van de middag en avond op veel plaatsen (zware) #onweersbuien. Zaterdag overwegend droog en aan de kust veel #wind. https://t.co/5HNtg7giG3 pic.twitter.com/fvd4SxOK37

The south of the Netherlands can expect thunderstorms with strong wind and hail in the coming hours. Over the course of the afternoon, rain showers will move up north, saving the northeast of the country for last. A code yellow warning is currently in place.
