These mountain passes are prone to the storm

If you intend to travel to the cottage to spend the rest of førjulstida there, it might be wise to wait a couple of days. In South Norway, there is no strong wind and rain in the mountainous areas.

- In the course of tomorrow comes the wind to increase to gale in the mountain regions in Southern Norway. In the course of Wednesday there may be strong wind on the most exposed places, " says meteorologist Martin Granerød by the Norwegian Meteorological institute.

It may be thus be a good idea to check the weather and traffic information if you are to run over the mountain this week, especially on Wednesday, urging the meteorologist.

Be prepared

- It can be snow and strong wind on the top of the transitions. It is especially the eastern mountainous regions will get rain, " says Granerød to the Newspaper.

It looks like the strongest wind will be on Tuesday night and Wednesday, but the wind will keep up to a little beyond Thursday.

- It is good to be prepared that it may be difficult in the mountain passes for several days.

He tells that it is typical that there are problems on the highway 7 over Hardangervidda mountain plateau, with such a wind direction. Also, the stretch across Haukelifjell is exposed.

Already yesterday was the formation of colonnes because of bad weather over the two above mentioned routes, in addition to highway 52 over Hemsedalsfjellet. On Monday afternoon, lit the Norwegian public roads administration also that the road 55 over Sognefjellet is closed for the winter.

Snow, sleet and rain

the Cause of the strong wind, is that høytrykket that has been lying over Scandinavia the last time has moved eastward.

- It has done that lavtrykket in the Atlantic ocean enters the north Sea in the course of the week, and set up a south-easterly vindfelt over large parts of the country. With this comes the enough a little scattered rain in the South and Eastern regions.
