Overview
- KNMI keeps code yellow in force across much of the country through the weekend as slick roads and freezing conditions continue after a brief code orange in parts of the west.
- Flight schedules remain disrupted with nearly 200 cancellations at Schiphol and delays at Rotterdam The Hague Airport, while NS ran reduced services and some regional buses paused before gradually resuming.
- Emergency crews handled dozens of road incidents, including cars sliding into ditches and waterways, a fatal head‑on crash on the N304 near Ugchelen, and a temporary A28 closure after a collision near Eelde.
- Rail operations saw localized stoppages, including a halt between Arnhem and Winterswijk after a train struck the rear of a car that slid onto a crossing near Zevenaar; no injuries were reported.
- Road managers ramped up anti‑icing, with Rotterdam deploying double gritting teams and Rijkswaterstaat urging cautious driving, and police reported an unrelated supermarket robbery in Leerdam with no injuries.
