    At the moment it's pretty cold.. weird weather.. you can have hail, rain and bright sunshine in a matter of hours :)

    Go to www.knmi.nl .. click on the link below "Weersverwachtingen en Waarschuwingen" (weather forecast and warnings).. and then find below the heading 'verwachtingen' (forecast): "negen dagen vooruit" (nine days ahead)..

    You'll see a tabel with this info for the next couple of days:

    zonneschijn = sunshine
    neerslagkans = chances or rain/snow/hail etc
    neerslaghoeveelheid = amount of rain/snow/hail etc
    minimum temperatuur = minimum temperature in Celsius! (usually this is the night temp.)
    middag temperatuur= temperature in the afternoon
    windrichting = direction of the wind
    windkracht = force of the wind

    This time of year you get 20 minutes of sun followed by 30 minutes of rain then 15 minutes of snow,with some thunder thrown in for good measure. Then the sun will come out again for an hour without raining,if your lucky. With an average daily temperature of about 40 degrees. I always take along my waterproof hiking boots,this time of year. But I really only needed them twice in the last two weeks. Take a waterproof jacket if you have one;because, its been raining alot the last three days and that trend appears as if it will continue well into spring. But the brief snow showers should end sometime in the next two weeks,I would think.


    Rain drops keep falling on my head... [​IMG]
