Bad weather is reported in southern Norway in the coming days. The Norwegian Meteorological Institute has issued a large number of hazard warnings, including snow, wind, rain, and ice.
A yellow hazard warning was sent for heavy snow on Saturday night in Telemark, Vestfold, Buskerud, Vest-Agder, Aust-Agder, Hedmark, Fjellet in southern Norway, Oppland, Akershus and Oslo.

– From Saturday night to Monday night, a lot of snow is expected in the interior and high areas, writes the Meteorological Institute in the hazard forecast.
– The snow line will vary from 300 to 800 meters, the highest snow line in the southern areas. About 30 cm of snow is expected in areas where all precipitation falls as snow, locally there may be more, it is said.
An orange hazard warning has also been issued for significant landslide hazard in Jotunheimen, Hardanger, Heiane, West Telemark and Sunnmøre.
Low pressure
For Romerikes Blad, the Meteorological Institute explains that the cause is a low pressure that carries precipitation inland.
– It is a low pressure that comes from the Atlantic Ocean and carries with it precipitation. First I eat snow, but then there will be a transition to rain during the afternoon and evening on Saturday, on-duty meteorologist Jon Austrheim tells Romerikes Blad.
