The Netherlands will be treated to a lot of snow on Sunday. Up to five centimeters may fall locally. The KNMI warns that it may become slippery in the western coastal provinces from the end of the afternoon on Saturday due to snow and freezing of wet road sections. This can also happen in the north during the evening.
The KNMI has issued code yellow for the provinces of Zeeland, South Holland, North Holland, Flevoland, Friesland and Groningen. Code yellow will still be in force in North Holland in the coming hours due to the risk of local slippery conditions.
The KNMI has also issued a warning for Sunday afternoon about the expected snowfall. During Sunday afternoon it will snow for a while from the west and a snow cover of 1 to 3 centimeters may develop. The snow will move northeastward across the country on Sunday evening. This can make it slippery again.
