The climate of Assen (the Netherlands)
Assen is located in the north-western part of the Drenthe Province of which it is also the capital. The town was founded in the 13th century when a nunnery was founded here. The city flourished during the 17th and 18th centuries. Assen was granted town privileges in the 18th century. A part of the old city center is a conservation area. Assen is known for the TT motorcycle races. This annual motorcycle event is the largest one single event in the Netherlands. Assen has a moderate maritime climate influenced by the North Sea and the warm Gulf Stream. Because of its northerly location temperatures are slightly lower than in the southern part of the country. Longer periods with subzero temperatures or subzero temperatures during the night are not uncommon. Precipitation is evenly spread out over the year. During the coldest days of the year precipitation falls in the form of (wet) snow.
