Predicative adjectives are adjectives used in their base or dictionary entry forms (also known as citation form), as in the sentences below:

De eerste oktoberdag was ongekend zonnig en zacht. Dinsdag wordt het weer minder fraai.

The first day in October was uncommnly sunny and mild. On Tuesday the weather will be less pleasant.

Note that predicative adjectives do not change their form and follow the nouns they qualify: zonnig and zacht occur in their citation form and follow oktoberdag, and fraai follows weer.
