Having said that, I'm actually glad I went to Luxemburg yesterday! If I were to go tomorrow.... I don't know if I'd made it back home!

well the storm is in the beginning of the afternoon, so by the time you need to get home it's probably ok again.

Get at work reopen the first weather website, and guess what, it's code red now

Last thing I read (about an hour ago), was that all except Drenthe, Groningen and Friesland were code orange, the latter 3 code yellow! And that's about it! *checks KNMI*

Damn, it is red!
And here KMI/IRM sais yellow except for the 4 northern provinces, where it's orange!

No trams, no trains, no flights, advice NOT to go anywhere if you do not need to!
Heavy!

I just got an "NL alert"saying not to call the emergency number unless it was an absolute emergency.
They are probably really busy.

Also, this is just in. the police is closing down the entire city center over here.

En Almere Centrum station is dicht. Net als Den Haag Centraal.

Not only in Almere! Rotterdam and Alphen aan den Rijn Egmond aan Zee!

The storm has clearly past us now.
