– Most precipitation comes in Western Norway south of Stad and in Agder. There is a low pressure from the south and up along the west coast which gives a lot of weather, says meteorologist on duty Siri Wiberg to VG.

– It will rain a lot. Not so much that we send out a warning, but it will be a good one root soaksays Wiberg.

After one very dry spring and water shortage in Oslo there are probably many roots that appreciate much-needed moisture. But it is not certain that the heavy rainfall helps so much on the water level in the reservoirs.

– It’s about a portion of rain, and then it kind of does not come much more. So I’m a little unsure of that, says Wiberg.

In addition to the precipitation, a yellow warning has been issued in Rogaland and Hordaland for strong gusts on Tuesday.

Locally, the wind can reach 28 meters per second. The wind can cause loose objects to blow off, and ferries and other transport can be canceled, writes Yr. In addition, bridges can be closed, and there is a risk of trees breaking and knocking out the power supply. The wind is expected to lie around 6pm on Tuesday.

Moderate rainfall in Eastern Norway

Rain is already doing so in parts of Western Norway. The rainy weather increases until Tuesday night and gradually spreads north. In Western Norway, the rain continues until Thursday or Friday at least.

In Eastern Norway, there will be more moderate rainfall. In the Oslo area, rain is expected from midday on Tuesday. Rain showers are also expected after the front until Wednesday before it eases east afafjells.

There will be colder winds northwest from over Eastern Norway towards the weekend, but if it gets sunny, it can still be nice weather from Thursday.

– It will be a different type of air. Even though it may be 17-18 degrees, you feel a sour wind, she says.

OSLO RAIN: Also in Oslo there will be rain in the next few days, but more moderate amounts than in Western Norway and in Agder, according to the meteorologists.

Possibilities for thunder

It is currently difficult to say exactly where in Western Norway the rainfall will hit hardest in the next few days. Small changes in wind direction or strength can have a lot to say.

The modeling at the Meteorological Institute fluctuates a lot, according to Wiberg. They also take into account that there may be thunder.

– There will be unstable weather, and there are also opportunities for thunder. But then it passes fairly quickly north.

In Western Norway, it will probably be unevenly distributed, and there will be a lot of precipitation in both the inner and outer areas. In Agder, there will probably be most precipitation in the outer areas.

Summery in the north

In the north of the country, on the other hand, summer temperatures have been reported, but with varying cloud cover.

– It is called summer when it is 15 degrees. So it’s going to be a bit summery. 15 maybe up to 20 degrees, says Wiberg.

– East wind has been reported, and it will be mostly dry. It will definitely be a lot of sun as well, so it will be pretty good weather in the north, says the meteorologist.

The warmer temperatures lead to melting snow in the mountains, and avalanche danger has been reported in several places in Troms and Finnmark. The meteorologist says she would avoid skiing in the next few days.

– I saw a picture of people who went skiing yesterday or the day before yesterday, so there are probably still opportunities. But it gets pretty rotten snow when it’s so hot.

– There is a danger of landslides, and when it gets so wet snow, it’s a little scary. It is not certain that there are such favorable skiing conditions, she says.
