意思
Weather is turning different.
文化背景
The Dutch use apps like 'Buienradar' to predict exactly when the weather will turn. It is common to see people checking their phones and suddenly rushing to their bikes to beat the 'omslag'. In Flanders, the phrase is just as common, but you might also hear 'het weer keert' (the weather turns), which is slightly more common in certain dialects. For sailors on the IJsselmeer, 'omslaan' is a technical term for capsizing. Using 'het weer slaat om' is a serious warning that the water might become dangerous. Complaining about the weather turning is a standard way to start a conversation with a stranger. It is considered a 'safe' and friendly topic.
The 'Zijn' Rule
Always use 'is' with 'omgeslagen'. It's a change of state, and Dutch is very strict about this!
Use it for Small Talk
If you want to sound like a native, use this phrase when you see the first cloud. It shows you understand the Dutch obsession with weather.

Don't use for people
While you can say a person's mood 'slaat om', it's better to use 'zijn humeur sloeg om'. Don't say 'Hij slaat om' unless he is literally doing a somersault.
