There’s the storm. Severe weather is expected on Friday in parts of Drenthe and Groningen. KNMI issues code yellow

After a few sweltering warm days, we will have heavy thunderstorms in parts of the North on Friday morning. It also seems to be hit on Friday evening. KNMI has announced code yellow.

Code yellow initially applies from 5 a.m. Friday morning to 12 noon.

Thunderstorms over the east of the country will move northwards and leave the northeast in the second half of the morning, according to meteorologists from Weather Plaza . “With the showers, local hail occurs and a lot of precipitation can fall in a short time.”

Thunderstorms again in the evening

Thunderstorms expected over the south in the afternoon will be even heavier. Locally, heavy wind gusts and hail can occur. Locally, a lot of precipitation can fall in a short time, resulting in flooding. The showers will move from south to north across the country in the evening and leave the country at the end of the evening.

On Thursday, the KNMI did not rule out the possibility of a very local tornado on Friday afternoon. That doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

Rijkswaterstaat urges motorists to adapt their driving style to the circumstances, especially during heavy rainfall or hailstorms.
