The first autumn storm of the year is a fact

The strongest gust of wind so far was registered in Hoek van Holland and was 114 km / h. There was even a moment of force 10 wind. The storm in the southwest of the country will probably last for a few more hours.

A lot of rain

It is also very turbulent deeper in the province of Zeeland. Numerous showers are passing over the southwest of the Netherlands, which can cause enormous amounts of rain locally.


The first autumn storm is coming earlier than usual this year. On average, it will not arrive until mid-October.

This afternoon, meteorologist Marc de Jong of Buienradar already warned about the consequences of such an early autumn storm. These can cause a lot of problems, because the trees are still full of leaves everywhere and catch plenty of wind.
