The Netherlands could get its first real taste of winter weather, with frost and hail on the horizon after weeks of unseasonably mild temperatures.
Though the Netherlands may have set a new record for the most number of mild days in a year, it looks like winter’s finally here. (And yes, it means business!)
But we’re not freezing just yet
Mild Dutch weather is giving us a final hurrah this Friday, with highs of 17 degrees Celsius in the south.
Helaas, if you live in the north, prolonged rain is likely to drag temperatures down to a more chilly 10 degrees.
Things will start getting colder on Saturday, with Weeronline forecasting highs between 11 and 14 degrees Celsius in the south. The north, meanwhile, will hover around a frosty 7 degrees.
Temperatures will continue to drop on Sunday, with a cloudy start to the day in most regions and some brief sunshine in the north.
Next week gets properly wintry
However, next week is when winter really kicks things up a notch.
While there will be occasional sunny spells, temperatures are expected to drop to a chilly 6 degrees Celsius, with the chance of hail.
Be sure to bundle up if you’re heading out at night, because we’ll likely experience the season’s first real winter frost.
