The map of the Meteorological Institute shows that thousands of lightning strikes have already been registered. On Twitter, they refer to it as a «violent thunderstorm».

– The forecast applies from now until the evening, so we expect it to decrease during the night, Lien says.

He says that how bad the weather is depends on where you are.

– It varies a lot from place to place, in some places it may already be over, says Lien.

The storm creates problems in several places. Among other things, a fuse box in a building in Sørum has caught fire. The police believe that the reason is that lightning has struck the building, the police write on Twitter.

On the E6 towards Hamar by Espa in the Inland, there has also been a traffic accident, where a car has run off the road. The driver has explained to the police that the reason for the descent was aquaplaning.

Lien still has good news for tomorrow.

– Tomorrow it will be partly nice weather, he says about Eastern Norway.
