The fourth-consecutive hot day was expected in the Netherlands on Sunday, with high temperatures at the center of the country expected to meet or exceed 33.6 degrees Celsius, the record set during a week-long heatwave in 1911. The thermometer could reach 37 degrees in Limburg, according to meteorological agency KNMI. Saturday also set a new mark for the hottest day on record. In the Utrecht town of De Bilt, home of the KNMI and considered the average point for Dutch weather, the temperature peaked at 33.8 degrees. That easily beat the old record set in 1975 of 32.9 degrees.Submitted by Zack Newmark on Sunday, 9 August 2020 - 09:20 https://nltimes.nl/2020/08/09/hottest-aug-9-ever-second-consecutive-record-breaking-day-expected
