According to meteorologist Maurice Middendorp of Buienradar, these high temperatures are the result of the warm air that is supplied from the south. “Spain has to deal with extreme heat so early in the year. It can reach 45 degrees there this week. The warm air will come our way on Friday and Saturday, briefly, via France.”
Middendorp points out that there could still be large temperature differences on Friday and Saturday. “It is still a question of how quickly the cold air will gain ground again. In the north the air is cooler, especially on Saturday, but it will rise above 20 degrees.” But 30 degrees or higher is becoming increasingly certain in the south and southeast.

For now, it seems that Saturday evening will be cooling. “Heavy rain and thunderstorms will cross the country and will dissipate the heat again,” says Middendorp. “Sunday the temperature will drop like a stone, and we probably won’t reach 20 degrees.”
But until then, a lot of sun is expected. Friday in particular will be a wonderful day for beach lovers. “You have to be there early on Saturday at the coast and it is important to keep an eye on the Buienradar.”

The week starts relatively cool today: afternoon temperatures today range from 15 to 19 degrees. And even in the north and east there may still be a shower. The day ends clear and dry, and the wind dies down.
Sunny and warm
Tomorrow promises to be a sunny day, but in the north it will be a bit cloudy in the morning. The temperature keeps increasing. In the Wadden area it will be about 16 degrees, but in other places in the country the mercury shoots above 20 degrees. Even 24 degrees is possible.
Thursday will also be dry, mainly sunny and warm. It’s so hot with you right now:

There are, however, caveats to the good weather. There is a relatively large amount of pollen in the air. The pollen radar turns dark red due to the amount of pollen, and will remain so for the next few days. “It gets more annoying at the end of the week for people with hay fever,” says Middendorp.
High sun power
And in addition, the sun power is high, around 6 to 7† That means you can burn within fifteen minutes. So lubricate well.
