Consequence

Loose items may be taken by the wind. Possibly cancelled departures for ferry, plane, or other transport. Bridges may be closed. Some journeys may have longer travel times. Blowing snow causes reduced visibility and possibly convoys and/or closed roads. The strong wind may cause locally high waves in fjords and lakes.

Advice

Follow advice and check status from transport operators. Check road reports (175.no).

Description

Monday and until early Tuesday morning is expected severe gale force 9 to storm force 10, locally with gusts of 27-35 m/s.
