Great chance of a few tropical days starting on Sunday Now

There is a good chance that the Netherlands will have some tropical days starting on Sunday, when it will be 30 degrees or warmer. According to the report of the meteorological services, "the weather conditions are too irregular to make very firm statements about the highest temperatures," said Ben Lankamp of Weerplaza, especially in the interior. "But it will be hot from Sunday, that's for sure."

"Temperatures will vary considerably from province to province," Lankamp said. "At sea, it's usually a bit colder, but in some places it will be very hot for a few days."

KNMI confirms that mercury is increasing and is forecasting temperatures above 24 degrees Sunday. Monday, the mercury would settle at 30 degrees and there is a good chance that this stage will be crossed Tuesday. consecutive tropical temperatures can be reached. There will certainly be no heat wave yet, shades Lankamp. "For that, it must be more than 25 ° C for five consecutive days, and three of these days more than 30 ° C," he says. "We think this will happen this summer, but not next week."

The summer of 2018 was marked by two national heat waves. Meteorologists predict that the summer will be hot, but not as heat records as last year. There is also a good chance that warm periods alternate with showers and even hail.
