Overview
- The first local night frost of the autumn struck parts of Brabant, Limburg and Zeeland, with sub‑zero air readings at 1.5 metres recorded in stations such as Eindhoven and Deelen on Friday.
- De Bilt stayed above freezing so the event did not count as a nationwide 'vorstdag' under the national 1.5‑metre measurement rule used for official frost records.
- Ground‑level frost was recorded earlier in some places, for example Lelystad reported −1.2°C at grass height, and drivers in several regions had to scrape frozen windscreens this morning.
- Daytime temperatures are staying chilly around 8–10°C with largely dry, sunny periods and a risk of mist or low cloud overnight across regions.
- Weather models and forecasters expect a change around mid‑week toward more clouds, rain, stronger winds and milder temperatures above about 10°C.
