Heavy thunderstorms will develop in the center and south of the country this evening. Meteorologist Reinier van den Berg from Buienradar sees that the showers will remain active for a while. The KNMI has issued code yellow for several provinces until 11 p.m. tonight.

According to Van den Berg, the showers are quite heavy. The ANWB warns traffic in the center and south of the country to take this into account in the coming hours.

Unpredictable where

“The showers are expected to mainly fall in the south, east and center of the country,” says Van den Berg. But the showers arise spontaneously, so it is impossible to predict where exactly they will fall.

This is an image from Ede and Bennekom, where things went wild:

A lot of rain falls in a short time, Van den Berg sees. “That always causes local nuisance. It is water that falls in half an hour, it cannot go away immediately.”

Due to the showers, the KNMI has issued code yellow for Zeeland, North Brabant, Limburg, South Holland, Gelderland, Flevoland and Utrecht. The weather warning applies until 11 p.m. tonight. Van den Berg expects the showers to disappear during the night.

But there is certainly no reason to panic, he says. “Such showers are part of summer heat and are really not extreme for this time of year.”

After the showers, the heat of the past few days is over. Tomorrow it will be an average of 15 degrees. We also have to take showers into account.
