Spring storm to batter northern Netherlands on Tuesday
The northern coast of the Netherlands will be hit by storm force westerly winds on Tuesday, with gusts of up to 110 kph, weather forecasters said on Monday.
The storm will be at its worst in the morning but it will be wet and windy all week, Weerplaza.nl reported.
There were also strong winds in coastal areas on Monday, which led to the cancellation of some fast ferry services to the Wadden Sea islands. Flights to and from Schiphol airport were also disrupted because of the strong winds.
The KNMI has issued a code yellow weather warning for the entire country. Tuesday’s wind will be accompanied by hail and possibly sleet, the KNMI said.
