Tornadoes Strike Arnhem and Other Netherlands Cities Sunday

At least three tornadoes struck the Netherlands Sunday as a storm system swept through northwestern Europe. One tornado struck Arnhem in Gelderland province while the other struck Wijk bij Duurstede, Utrecht province. Temperatures were only in the lower 50s at the time of the tornadoes, but very cold air in the upper atmosphere made the atmosphere just unstable enough for thunderstorms. Winds in the lower atmosphere over the Netherlands on Sunday were aligned in a way that is typically associated with the potential for tornadoes when thunderstorms are present
