Published: Valid: from 27.01.2023 10:00 to 29.01.2023 04:00

Warning

Blowing snow

Consequence

Reduced visibility. Local driving conditions may become difficult due to snow accumulating on the road. Expect convoys and/or closed roads on short notice.

Advice

Allow extra time for transportation and driving. Follow advice and check status from transport operators. Check road reports (175.no). Use tires fit for winter conditions and use caution while driving. Avoid unnecessary journeys to exposed places.

Description

Blowing snow in the mountains due to gale force wind. The snow line will vary during Friday. Friday evening temperatures above zero are expected up to 400-700 m above sea level, which will temporarily reduce the risk of blowing snow.
