Sun or rain? This is the weather forecast for October in Haarlem

Meteorologist Floris Lafeber from Weeronline.nl suggests that Haarlem will enjoy a mild start to October, with temperatures reaching between 19 and 22 degrees Celsius. Although the initial warm spell has passed, the weather is expected to remain dry and pleasant for the coming days, offering comfortable conditions when the sun is out.

However, the forecast shifts toward the second weekend of October as wind patterns turn toward the west and northwest. This change will likely bring increased rain and cooler temperatures, with daily highs dropping to around 15 or 16 degrees. By the latter half of the month, a southwesterly flow is predicted to introduce typical autumn weather characterized by damp, changeable conditions. While residents can expect more frequent showers, the month will likely alternate between wet periods and dry intervals, consistent with seasonal expectations for the upcoming autumn break.
