Danish residents planning Whitsun holiday trips should prepare for alternating weather conditions, including both sunshine and rain. According to the Danish Meteorological Institute, the holiday period will feature a mix of pleasant days and days with showers.

Friday is expected to be cloudy with widespread rain spreading across the country from the southwest. Thunderstorms may also occur in some areas. The rain is expected to gradually clear from the southwest by late morning, but scattered showers, potentially with thunder, will persist into the afternoon before some sunshine appears. Temperatures will range from 12 to 17 degrees Celsius, with winds increasing to strong from the southwest. Northern Jutland may experience the heaviest rainfall, with up to 20 millimeters expected.

Saturday is forecast to be a much nicer day, starting with sunshine and only a few isolated showers. Temperatures will rise to around 18 degrees Celsius. However, the afternoon will bring more showers, possibly accompanied by thunder, which will continue into the evening and night.

Sunday’s weather will resemble Friday’s, with rain and showers expected for much of the day, potentially including hail and thunder. However, the afternoon should see a gradual clearing with plenty of sunshine and only a few showers. Temperatures will range from 13 to 17 degrees Celsius.

Monday is expected to be similar to Saturday, with periods of sunshine and only a few showers. The southern part of the country may experience more cloudy weather with scattered showers and slightly cooler temperatures between 13 and 16 degrees Celsius.

Despite the variable conditions, heavy winter clothing is not necessary. However, raincoats and rubber boots are essential for those planning outdoor activities, especially for children who enjoy playing in puddles. A coat is also recommended.
