The weather

The weather is always changing in Holland and you can always strike up a conversation with a Dutch person about the weather - it is one of their favorite topics of discussion.

The KNMI is the Royal Dutch Meteorological Institute, but their website is only in Dutch. There are many weather apps, of which 'Buienalarm' (rain alert) is also in English. It gives you a radar picture of the Netherlands to show you where it is raining/going to rain. But it also gives temperatures and a general forecast.

The BBC website gives a five day weather forecast for this part of Western Europe
