Overview
- The KNMI set code orange for Tuesday night into Wednesday morning in the north after earlier code‑geel alerts, warning of widespread ijzel and a high risk of accidents.
- Multiple crashes clogged key routes on Monday, with a lane closed in the Heinenoordtunnel on the A29, long delays on the A27, and the N33 in Drenthe shut in both directions for about two hours due to ice.
- Rijkswaterstaat and rail operators reported lingering disruption, including reduced services and speed restrictions between Duivendrecht and Holendrecht that continue to limit Amsterdam–Utrecht trains.
- Police found weapons and possible explosives in a Krokusstraat home, the EOD investigated, fifteen houses were evacuated as a precaution and a 49‑year‑old resident was arrested.
- Customs destroyed 463 kilograms of cocaine seized in a Rotterdam port container of mangoes from Peru, and prosecutors said the destination companies appear not to be complicit.
