On Friday morning, the sun will show its best side in Brabant. But that will change in the course of the morning, according to Rico Schröder, weatherman at Weerplaza. “From one o’clock, heavy downpours can fall in our province. Code yellow has been announced until eleven o’clock tonight. The temperature is good for the liberation parties. There is only a heavy shower now and then.”
“In the coming hours, more cumulus clouds will gradually form. These can develop into heavy rain and thunderstorms. It can also start to hail. The showers are accompanied by strong gusts of wind and large amounts of water,” Rico describes the weather situation for Friday afternoon.
They don’t fall everywhere
It is not clear exactly where the showers will fall. “That is difficult to say with these kinds of showers. The necessary showers are coming, but they really do not fall everywhere in the province.”
According to Rico, the downpours will not last too long. “The showers last five to ten minutes. Then the sun breaks through again and we have to wait for the next shower. With a temperature of twenty degrees, it is still a good place.”
Southeast has longer problems
In the course of the afternoon, the number of showers from the southwest decreases. “From that moment on, the west of our province will shine more and more often and longer. It will remain dry there by the end of the afternoon,” says the weatherman. “In the southeast of the province, the showers last longer. It only gets really dry there in the second half of the evening.”
Saturday will have a misty and foggy start, according to Rico. “That is due to all the wetness. On Saturday there is more room for the sun and it will certainly remain dry until the evening.”
