Episode Details

The Netherlands is bracing for a second heatwave this summer, with temperatures soaring between 30 and 35 degrees Celsius across most regions. KNMI has issued yellow heat warnings for Wednesday through Friday, with Wednesday likely the hottest day at 35°C, followed by 32°C on Thursday. A brief reprieve arrives Saturday at 25°C, but heat returns Monday at 33°C. With little wind and nights barely cooling to 20°C, it’ll feel even more oppressive — except in the Wadden Islands, where temps top out at 24°C. The national heat plan activates after four consecutive days over 27°C, urging vulnerable populations to stay hydrated and be aware that medications may behave differently in extreme heat. Last month’s red alert — which shut down schools, halted construction, and paused grocery deliveries — proves how serious this can get.
