Code yellow
Because of the fog, KNMI (Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute) issued a yellow code for North Brabant. In some areas in the province, visibility was less than 200m, due to the fog. The fog also caused significant problems at the airport on Tuesday morning and evening. Several flights were unable to depart at that time.
Flights resumed at 11:00 on Thursday.
