Central Norway in particular has been hit hard by the storm. According to NVE, Thursday will be the day where Gyda will be at its most intense:
– Gyda is still active, and we expect that Thursday is the day that has the greatest probability of incidents, says Brigt Samdal, director of the landslide and watercourse department, in a press release.
Traffic in large parts of the country will be affected on Thursday morning by the extreme weather Gyda. Among other things, the E6 is closed over Saltfjellet in Nordland. See which stretches of road are closed at the bottom of the case!
– The water flow will continue to rise and it is expected that the peak can be reached late Thursday or early Friday morning, says Samdal in NVE. This will depend on both precipitation and temperature development, he explains.
There has been a landslide at or in a construction site at Sjøholt in Ålesund municipality. No people were injured. 16 houses have been evacuated here pending geological surveys.
– There are 16 homes that have been evacuated. We do not have a complete overview of how many have been evacuated, but everyone is out of the houses, says operations manager Sindre Molnes to VG.
The homes will be evacuated until daylight comes on again, then a new assessment will be made, says Molnes. No damage to houses has been reported so far.
According to the fire service, there is an imminent danger that more mass could erupt. The municipality has organized temporary housing for the evacuees. A geologist will examine the area during the day on Thursday.
In Sunndal, an ice plug in the river Driva has led to the evacuation of two residential houses. The ice plug occurred before Christmas.
–On Wednesday evening, notice was given to residents in residential areas along Kanndalsvegen and a residential area by Kjempehaugan in Eresfjord about evacuation. Dokkelva in Eresfjord went over its banks, and the situation is being closely monitored.
– The river triggers a great danger. It finds new runs down towards the residential areas. Therefore, we have initiated evacuation for 90 people, said mayor of Molde municipality, Torgeir Dahl, to VG late Wednesday.
The number has since been scaled down to 44 people, the police write MøreRomsdal on Twitter. It is continuously assessed whether there is a need for further evacuations and how long the evacuation will last.
The municipality has established a place of residence for those who have to evacuate. The affected residents have been notified by SMS.

–The residents had to evacuate no later than 11.30 pm. The crisis management in the municipality had a meeting at 23.30 to get an update on the situation.
The police will go over the evacuated properties to check that everyone has been evacuated. They must register at Kavli Moen Gård, reports Drive.
– The weather will probably improve on Thursday. For the time being, it looks like there will be no long-term evacuation, says the mayor.

The civil defense, the police, Norwegian People’s Aid and the fire service are connected to the case. Dahl is the leader of the crisis management in Molde municipality. The decision to evacuate was made on the recommendation of the operations center.
Wednesday morning, “Gyda” announced its arrival. The extreme weather brings with it mild weather, wind and an enormous amount of rain.
– That we have so many natural hazard warnings out at the same time is very unusual, says duty officer and avalanche warnings in NVE, Jostein Aasen, to VG.

DANGER OF FLOOD: This message went out to the inhabitants of Eresfjorden in Molde municipality. Extreme weather has caused NVE to send out warnings about floods, landslides, mudslides and landslides at the highest level. This means that such conditions do not occur more often than every 50 years.
– A couple of minor flood landslides and one landslide have been reported in Vestland county. More landslides and landslides are expected with continued heavy rainfall throughout the evening and night, says Johan Kristofers, duty officer at the landslide warning in NVE.
Driving conditions are challenging in several places. Operations Manager Sindre Molnes at the police in Møre og Romsdal has this call for those who have to go out on the road on Thursday morning.
– Listen to advice that has been sent out, get the latest news. And if you do not need to drive, then stop, he says.
