Extended precipitation radar and rainfall radar

The live images with the Abbenwier show precipitation that is currently active. The darker the radar images, the more intense the showers. The image is refreshed every five minutes. This rain radar shows the direction of the showers. You can also see what the current temperature is.

Current images precipitation and intensity

Track direction, speed and intensity of current showers. This precipitation radar displays precipitation and lightning but not current cloud cover. The actual cloud cover can be viewed via the satellite images of the drizzle radar.

Thunder and lightning. Will there be thunder?

Thunderstorms occur when there is friction between strongly rising warm air and rapidly descending cold air. On the thunderstorm radar below with precipitation, lightning and temperature you can see the current lightning activity over the Netherlands and part of Belgium.

Heat wave or cold wave?

A heat wave occurs when there are at least 5 summer days in De Bilt of 25 degrees Celsius or higher and three of these days have to be tropical. Tropical days are days when it is hotter than 30 Degrees Celcius.

When there are five ice days (maximum temperature should be lower than 0 Degrees Celcius) in De Bilt with three days of hard frost, we speak of a cold wave. It is severe frost when the minimum temperature is lower than minus 10 degrees Celcius.

Sun radar and UV index

The maps below show the UV index and sun strength for today and tomorrow. The index is shown when it is cloudy and when it is cloudless. The UV index can vary from 0 to 8 in our country.

Sun power scale

  • Sun strength1 1-2: With a sun strength of 1-2, the skin will not burn easily. You can then spend 50-100 minutes in the sun with unprotected skin just fine.
  • Sun strength 3-4: Your skin is less likely to burn. You could spend about 25-35 minutes in the sun with your skin unprotected.
  • Sun strength 5-6: Your skin can burn quite quickly. You can spend up to 10-15 minutes in the sun with unprotected skin.
  • Sun strength 7-8: your skin can burn very quickly. You can spend less than 10 minutes in the sun with unprotected skin, according to the KWF Cancer Society.

Wind Radar Abbenwier

The maps below show the wind force, gusts and wind speed in Abbenwier. The values are updated every 10 minutes. Wind force is shown in Beaufort (bft), gusts in kilometers per hour and wind speed in meters per second.

Visibility and humidity

The images below show today’s visibility in meters. And the relative humidity percentage.

Visibility (meters)

With a red dot, visibility is less than 100 meters. A yellow dot indicates visibility of 200-1000 meters. A light blue dot indicates visibility between 1000 and 5000 meters. A blank dot indicates that visibility is more than 5000 meters. It is then completely clear visibility.

Visibility (meters)

The relative humidity percentage is given in percentages. Relative humidity is a ratio that indicates how much water vapor air contains relative to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can contain. A value of 100% indicates the maximum amount of water vapor: the air is then saturated.

Drying Monitor

Overview of precipitation and evaporation in the Netherlands. Since evaporation is negligible in the fall, it is not shown.

Precipitation deficit

The precipitation deficit indicates the number of millimeters of rainfall deficit. The darker the color, the greater the deficit and the worse the drought. The precipitation deficit is the difference between evaporation and precipitation.

Relative humidity

The relative humidity percentage indicates the amount of humidity in the air. The relative humidity indicates the amount of water vapor in the air relative to the maximum water vapor. At 100%, the air is saturated. The warmer the air, the more water vapor.

Definition

Below is an explanation of some weather terms.

Wind force

Wind force indicates wind speed. The Beaufort (Bft.) scale is used to express wind power. The wind force ranges from wind force 1 to wind force 12. The wind speed is determined during the day and on open terrain. As a result, the wind force is an average. If it is wind force 4, then it may be wind force 6 at sea but wind force 3 on sheltered land. Wind force 1 and 2 represents a weak wind. Wind force 3 and 4 represents a moderate wind. Wind force 5 is a fairly strong wind. At 6 Bft, the wind can be called powerful. A hard wind is the 7 Bft. When it is 8 Bft., the wind is stormy. A wind force further (9 Bft.) is storm. 10 Bft. is a heavy storm. At wind force 11 we speak of a very heavy storm. A hurricane is when it is 12 Bft.

Wind direction

The wind can blow from different directions. These wind directions are North (N), East (O), South (Z) and West (W). Combinations are possible. Example: ZO stands for a wind direction from the southeast. If no clear direction is determined, this is indicated by VAR. With a north wind, wind from the Wadden Sea flows into the Netherlands.

Minimum temperature

The precipitation amount indicates how much precipitation will fall in the form of (drizzle) rain, snow or hail. The precipitation amount is an expectation of precipitation. Precipitation is expressed in millimeters (mm). A millimeter of rain corresponds to 1 liter of rain per square meter of ground surface. For other precipitation, meltwater determines the amount of precipitation.

Afternoon temperature

The afternoon temperature means the highest value in degrees Celsius (°C), which is reached at noon. The afternoon temperature is measured, like the minimum temperature, at 1.5 meters height. When the sun is shining and it is warm, the maximum temperature closer to the ground is often higher. During winter time, the maximum temperature is measured at 15:00 and during summer time at 16:00 or 17:00.

Precipitation amount

The precipitation amount indicates how much precipitation will fall in the form of (drizzle) rain, snow or hail. The precipitation amount is an expectation of precipitation. Precipitation is expressed in millimeters (mm). A millimeter of rain corresponds to 1 liter of rain per square meter of ground surface. For other precipitation, meltwater determines the amount of precipitation.

Precipitation probability

When it comes to the probability of precipitation, it is about the probability as a percentage that precipitation will occur at a particular location. It is not about how long the precipitation falls. For example, it could drizzle for 10 minutes or it could drizzle for 3 hours. If there is a 10% chance of precipitation then the chance is small and if there is a 90% chance of precipitation then the chance is high.

Sunshine percentage

The sunshine percentage gives you an idea of how long the sun shines each day. The sunshine percentage indicates how long the sun shines between sunrise and sunset. For example, if a day lasts 8 hours and the sunshine percentage is 50%, then the sun shines for 4 hours that day.

Wind Scale of Beaufort (bft)

The Beaufort wind scale (abbreviated by bft) indicates the speed of the wind and was established in 1805 by Irishman Francis Beaufort. The wind speed ranges from wind force 1 to wind force 12. The wind speed is determined during the day on open ground. For example, if wind force 5 is predicted, in practice it may be wind force 6 on open water and wind force 4 in sheltered terrain.
