So i'm gonna be in the city from 11 to 17 aug, i just wanted to ask if the weather was the usual of all past years with some regular rain, not much hotness and a nice wind all day long especially at night or if this year is another anomaly like last year where i packed too heavy (after just 17 previous trips of experience with the city) and i was sweating my balls off, even at night when it was more suffocating than my native place (sicily) that is basically africa during summer

Just to know what to pack in the bag.

I could just check on the internet but i prefer the feedback of people who lives there and there are a lot of dutchies here on gaf.


Thanks in advance.

Yeah I believe Amsterdam is also caught in this southern jet stream that's affecting UK. So pretty unsettled.

 

[GymWolf]

I'm not sure if this is better because i do love doing pic nic their parks and a lot of rain is not ideal for that.

Do anyone who lives there has anything to add?

Packing the wrong things can really fuck up my trip.

MMaRsu are you from ams?

Netherlands has had storm and rain for quite a few weeks now, but it might actually improve at the end of next week so you might be in luck.

Weather is pretty bad the last couple of weeks here (live near Amsterdam). Funny enough, i'm leaving the exact same dates to Belgium, so I hope it clears up as well.

I live a 15 minute trainride away from A'dam and the weather has been shitty (perspective depenend but not your typical summer that's for sure) for about 3 weeks (or more?) now. Fwiw.

Pretty much all of Northern Europe is a shit show thanks to the jet stream this year.

Well ofcourse. The day after my birthday the weather brightens up.

 

[GymWolf]

So just to check with the locals before i finish to pack, still pretty chill all day long with wind and occasional rain?

Well i can say goodbye to showing my magnificent tan

 

[sinnergy]

Well ofcourse. The day after my birthday the weather brightens up.

The day after we came ba o from a 10 day holiday .. with almost non-stop rain .. it now gets better .

 

[thief183]

Every time I've been in Amsterdam it was raining and there was a guy parade, every single time.

...also in Stockholm, it looks like it is pride month all year

Yesterday was relatively warm with some blue skies. Today it's back to white skies and wind. Ehh.

Just make sure you ask every person about their wooden shoes and their chocolates.

Just make sure you ask every person about their wooden shoes and their chocolates.

If you wanna get people riled up there: ask about Ajax upcoming season.

I'm gonna try kfc for the first time (i think), why i don't see the famous gravy in the dips? Is it included with any chicken you buy?

 

[Fart Knight]

[KrazyKrelian]

[Fart Knight]

Ja

 

[Boozeroony]

Only mayo on fries?

Pindasaus.

 

[KrazyKrelian]

Mayo on fries isn't really too weird. Fries go good with a ton of stuff. I'm partial to fries w/ cream gravy myself.

[German Hops]

Weather or not you're concerned about the whether, take consideration on what you would wether do:

1) Enjoy the whether.
2) Parade down the RLD wearing leather.

 

[haxan7]
