It’s spring this weekend, but winter is back next week
The Netherlands is in for a warm, sunny weekend with temperatures rising to 19°C in places, potentially setting new weather records.
Normally, at this time of year, temperatures do not exceed 10°C. The current record for March 8 is 16°C, set in 2014.
Sunday is also expected to be sunny and warm, though slightly cooler than Saturday, according to Weeronline. There will also be more high cloud. Sahara dust in the atmosphere may also create striking sunrises and sunsets.
Next week, however, the weather will change. Monday will be cooler, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 15°C, and rain is expected in the evening. In the following days, the temperature will drop further, reaching no more than 8°C, with the possibility of night frosts.
On Tuesday, heavy rain and hail are possible, Weeronline said.
The KNMI weather bureau forecasts further rain on Thursday and predicts that the weather will remain chilly and changeable well into March.
