Summer weather approaching: ‘A huge portion of soft air is coming’

This Tuesday morning also started sunny, but we don’t like this. “Showers that were still near Calais in France early in the morning are coming this way,” Johnny said on the radio. “The first showers are for the west of the province, for Bergen op Zoom and the surrounding area. They will move further over Brabant during the morning. We will also have to deal with heavy showers in the first half of the afternoon. But later in the In the afternoon the sun breaks through more often and it becomes dry. The temperature in the afternoon will be around 12 or 13 degrees with a strong southwest wind.”

It will also be changeable on Wednesday and Thursday. This is the result of low pressure areas moving over the British Isles and the North Sea. “We will then get the rain. First rain, later an alternation of sun and showers. We will see that on Wednesday and Thursday.”

The next depression, which will determine the weather afterwards, will be a very deep one, according to the Weerplaza weatherman. “It originates near Portugal and Spain. It does not move to our country, but to the west of Ireland. It sets in motion a strong southerly current.”

This has positive consequences for us. “We are really going to high temperatures,” Johnny said. “We’ll be heading towards 20 degrees on Friday, maybe towards 25 degrees on Saturday.”

The weatherman from Weerplaza speaks of a ‘huge portion of soft air’ that is being sent our way from Spain and the surrounding area. “Saturday will probably also be a dry day, with sun. After that, the weather will be changeable and the temperature will be a bit lower. But on Saturday we will be well above 20 degrees.”

Typical barbecue weather, then. “This could be possible. You have to set up the barbecue properly, because there will be wind. But in terms of temperature it seems possible.”
