WEATHER FORECAST. First dry with broad clear spells, then rain and thunder: RMI announces code yellow for Antwerp and Limburg | Weather news

Today there are sometimes broad clear skies over Flanders at first and it is mainly dry, according to the RMI. Later in the morning or around noon, a rain and shower zone will enter our country from France and then slowly move northwards. It often becomes heavily cloudy with periods of rain and showers, which are locally accompanied by thunder. When the precipitation zone reaches the north of the country, towards the late afternoon and evening, it largely comes to a standstill. As a result, a lot of rain may fall in the areas near the Dutch border. In the provinces of Antwerp and Limburg, code yellow applies for thunderstorms from 2 p.m. This applies until 9am tomorrow morning. Local quantities of more than 20 mm in 6 hours and/or 25 mm in 24 hours are possible, and very locally even more than 40 millimeters in 24 hours.

At the same time, it will become largely dry again at the rear of the precipitation zone, with sometimes broad clear spells. This is especially the case in the regions near the French border. The maximum temperatures are between 12 and 15 degrees in the Ardennes, around 17 or 18 degrees in the north of Flanders and between 15 and 17 degrees elsewhere.

Tonight and tonight there is sometimes intense precipitation in the north of Flanders. Elsewhere it is or will be mostly dry, with local formation of low clouds or fog. The minimum temperatures fluctuate between 5 and 10 degrees in the southern half of the country and between 10 and 12 degrees in the northern part.

TomorrowThis afternoon it is often cloudy, especially in the northern half of the country, with some light rain here and there. In the south it is often dry with sun. In the afternoon the distribution is the other way around, with more clouds and showers, especially in the south, and sometimes broad and dry skies in the north. The maximum temperatures fluctuate between 13 and 18 degrees.

WednesdayIn the morning, low clouds or – especially in the Ardennes – also fog banks appear in many areas. During the day, clear skies will appear at the sea and in the west. Elsewhere it will remain rather cloudy. It remains mainly dry with maximum temperatures between 13 and 17 degrees.

Thursday there is first local morning gray. During the day the sun breaks through and there are sometimes broad clear skies, especially over Flanders. It remains dry at a maximum of 14 to 19 degrees.

Also Friday it will remain dry with, after any morning gray, an alternation of sun and clouds. We achieve maximum temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees. Next weekend the chance of precipitation remains limited. Cloud fields and sometimes broader clearings alternate. The maximum temperatures fluctuate from 15 to 16 degrees at the sea and in the High Ardennes to around 20 and locally 22 degrees elsewhere.
