Wunderground weather calendar links for the Netherlands

In the new Google Calendar, weather is no longer shown. That’s a pity!

Thankfully, there is something of a workaround, suggested here and further expanded upon for locations outside the USA here.

Synopsis: you can get a calendar file from Wunderground! Excellent! Here’s how it works:
you download https://ical.wunderground.com/auto/ical/global/stations/NUMBER and you get the weather forecast for the weather station with number NUMBER.
All you need to do is somehow find the station number of a station near you. That was probably part of the URL, but when I looked for stations near me, it didn’t seem that way.

However, I lucked out, in that one of the three links by Chris Short actually pointed to the Netherlands! So, I did what anyone with access to wget and shell scripting could do: I just bruteforced. Interestingly enough, they’re mostly along the coast. Without further ado, I proudly present the list of station numbers in the Netherlands:
