Late‑Summer Warmth Ends as Rain and Wind Return Tuesday

A fast-moving frontal band will lower temperatures to about 18–19°C, bringing rain, stronger winds, isolated thunderstorms, coastal gusts up to force 6.

Overview

  • The weekend stays pleasant with sunshine and highs near 23°C and Monday is forecast to be the warmest day at about 25°C with locally 27–28°C in the east.
  • Meteorologist Donny de Koning said the striking red sky over Brabant on Friday was caused by a thick layer of high cloud reflecting sunset light.
  • Forecast models indicate the pattern flips on Tuesday when rain moves into the region and daytime temperatures drop to roughly 18–19°C.
  • Midweek will be unsettled with frequent showers or heavier rain, a chance of isolated thunderstorms, stronger southwest to west winds and coastal gusts up to around force 6.
  • Nights and early mornings will feel noticeably cooler after clear spells, sometimes below 10°C, so people should expect jackets and wet conditions through midweek with a gradual but cooler improvement later in the week.
