Due to icy roads, the KNMI issued a code yellow warning for the entire country. The notice will likely extend into Sunday due to rain beginning in the south of the country and moving north.

Temperatures will stay around zero degrees Celsius, with a high of six degrees in the southwest. A moderate breeze coming from the east can make the temperature feel cooler.

Minimum temperatures range from two degrees Celsius in the south to minus eight degrees in the northeast.

Temperatures will pick up on Sunday with a high of ten degrees Celsius and continue to rise in the upcoming week with up to 16 degrees on Wednesday.
