KNMI Issues Code Yellow for Dense Fog Across Northern and Eastern Netherlands

Drivers were urged to slow down due to fog cutting visibility below 200 metres across six northern and eastern provinces.

Overview

  • The warning covers Groningen, Friesland, Drenthe, Flevoland, Overijssel and Gelderland, according to the latest reports early Tuesday.
  • Locally dense fog reduced visibility to less than 200 metres, raising the risk of accidents for morning road users.
  • Authorities advised motorists to reduce speed and increase following distance until conditions improve.
  • The alert was expected to remain in effect until around 10:00 on Tuesday, when the mist was forecast to lift.
  • An earlier local report said a similar warning on Monday ended at 12:00, highlighting a minor discrepancy in reported end times.
