What’s the weather like on King’s Day 2022?

Whether or not we have good weather on King’s Day 2022 depends on where you are in the Netherlands. 📍

Unlike last year, when we couldn’t even celebrate King’s Day, the weather probably won’t be perfect this time around. 😔

Philippe Schambergen of Buienradar said it’s up to the cloud cover in the coming days, according to RTL Nieuws.

Grey, cloud-fulled skies

The eastern border of the Netherlands can expect some showers over the next two days — and the clouds won’t be moving away very quickly. 💨

According to Buienradar’s weather models, it is likely the northwest will be cloudy and grey. In the southeast, it may be warm and sunny, but “there is a lot of uncertainty.” 🤔

Schambergen expects the clouds to move a bit towards the southeast. “Locally that can really cause a lot of rain. A thunderstorm is also possible.” 🌩

Schambergen says temperatures also depend on clouds. “Under cloud cover, it will be a maximum of 12 degrees, but in places where the clouds stay away, it can be a nice 16 degrees.” 😎

A chilly (King’s) night

On Tuesday evening, the wind (of course) will push even more clouds over the country — and the good weather on King’s Day all depends on where the clouds spread.

The night after King’s Day will be exceptionally cold for this time of year, with a maximum of two to three degrees Celsius and potentially frozen ground across the country. 🥶

If you’re planning on going out for King’s Night, it’s going to be an exceptionally fresh evening. ❄️

18 degrees for the King

De koning himself Willem-Alexander will visit Maastricht for King’s Day 2022, where temperatures may reach as high as 18 degrees Celsius.
