Saturday is set to be warm, but Saharan sand may cloud the sun

There is a good chance the temperature will hit 25° in southern parts of the Netherlands on Saturday, but the sun may be hard to see because of the clouds and Saharan sand that are expected to accompany the warm weather, forecasters say.

A temperature of at least 20° is a certainty at the De Bilt weather station, where official weather records are set, but Limburg and Noord-Brabant will be even warmer because they are inland and in the south, Weerplaza meteorologist Floris Lafeber said.

“That is warmer than normal but we’ve had such temperatures more often in recent years,” Lafeber told Nu.nl. There will, however, be strong sea breezes on the coast.

Sunday is likely to be wet again, although there will be some sunny spells and the temperature will remain around 20°. The picture is similar well into next week, the KNMI weather bureau said.
