The Norwegian Meteorological Institute has issued a yellow warning for wind gusts in Oslo, Viken, Vestfold and Telemark and Agder. In Tønsberg, the wind grabs trampolines and trees, police report.
– Currently we have no injuries, and we hope it continues like this. People must be vigilant and carry and secure loose items, says Southeastern Police District Operations Manager Trond Egil Groth.
Urge people to drive more carefully because of the wind. You can blow twigs on the road.
Three more passenger car
In Sarpsborg, on the E6 near Skjeberg, a truck has lost parts of the load, writes Sarpsborg Arbeiderblad.
This afternoon, a large tree flew over a car, which was parked right next to a kindergarten in Tønsberg, police report on Twitter.
The driver was sitting and driving the car when the tree fell with a crash. Fortunately, he recovered from the incident without injury. We blockade a large area, and the municipality is in place and taking care of the tree removal, says Fire Chief Sven Erik Andersen at the Fire Brigade on Twitter.
At 4pm, the police district reports that the patrols are on a mission with trees that have blown up the road and large loose objects that have blown up.
– There have been reports of downed trees and misplaced trampolines, says Operations Manager Groth.
At the same time, slippery roads are reported in several places, due to leaves.
– If people carry and secure loose items, this will be fine, Groth says.
