It did come in the three northern provinces, but did not come for Overijssel. While it is windy in our province with wind force 5 and 6. The consequences are fallen trees and problems on the road, especially in the east of Overijssel.
For example, the wind on the N36 between Vriezenveen and Westerhaar got a hold on a trailer. A recovery company was called in to resolve the situation.
Blown down trees
In Nijverdal, the fire brigade had to come to the rescue on Portlandweg. There, a fallen tree blocked the entire street. The fire service closed the road and sawed the tree to pieces to clear the road again.
Similar situations occurred in Sibculo, Westerhaar, Enschede and Overdinkel, among others. Here too, the fire brigade had to cut trees into pieces to ensure that traffic could pass again.
Damage to facade
In Almelo, the fire brigade had to work with an aerial platform. A banner had come loose at a clothing store on Molenstraat. The thing kept hitting the windows. The waving banner has been removed to prevent further damage.
There was also damage to a building in Dedemsvaart. That’s because a tree fell on a house and an adjacent shed:
Wind dies down and comes back
The strong northwesterly wind will continue tonight in Overijssel, with a splash of rain in Twente. Tonight the wind will slowly decrease to moderate, after which it will become calmer tomorrow. It will be a transition day towards Monday, which threatens to be turbulent. Storm Corrie will then pass over the Netherlands.
