Amsterdam Climate

Temperate maritime climate, mild and frequently overcast year-round. Winters are cold (0–7°C) with regular rain and occasional snow or freezing fog. AMS handles de-icing efficiently but heavy snowfall (rare) causes cascading delays across the network. Fog is the primary winter disruption risk, particularly November through February.

Summers are warm (17–24°C) with long days and moderate rain. Thunderstorms in July–August cause brief but sharp delays. Strong crosswinds from the North Sea affect small aircraft year-round. Pack a waterproof layer regardless of season.
