Today and tomorrow, most of the country will get a last taste of summer. It will probably not be a cloudless sky, but a high pressure has settled over the country and ensures higher temperatures. – The warmest places will be in Eastern Norway and in Trøndelag, where temperatures can exceed 25 degrees, says meteorologist on duty at the Meteorological Institute, Martin Granerød. It will be warm across the country on Wednesday. Photo: Meteorological Institute You will also be able to enjoy the heat in northern Norway. Granerød says that places in both Nordland and Troms and Finnmark can see the thermometer show up to 23 degrees. But in Western Norway, the heat does not come alone. – Not everyone gets to enjoy the high pressure so much. A warning has been issued for torrential rain in Western Norway from Thursday afternoon. It lasts until Friday, says Granerød. Cooler ahead – It remains to be seen whether this will be the last taste of summer, says Granerød. As far as the forecasts show, it does not appear that the temperatures will approach 25 degrees again. But if you like warm autumn days, hope is not lost. – We have seen in previous years that it can also be 25 degrees in September, says Granerød. In Western Norway, a danger warning for torrential rain has been issued from Thursday afternoon.

But how soon autumn comes will vary. Østafjells seems to have a cautious start to the autumn. – But there will probably be a slightly cooler start to autumn in the west and in the north, explains Granerød. Special summer As autumn sets in, Norway leaves behind both a normal and an abnormal summer. – In Eastern Norway they have had a completely normal summer, while in the north it has been both warmer and wetter than normal, says Tone Huseby, climate watcher at the Meteorological Institute. In terms of heat, Oslo is actually beaten by Tromsø. The normal summer in the east meant that they did not have any days with temperatures above 30 degrees. On Saturday 2 July, the measuring station at Langnes in Tromsø showed 30.2 degrees. – It is unusual that there is a higher maximum temperature in Tromsø than in Oslo, says Huseby. Around Europe, temperatures have also been higher than normal this summer, which has led to an increase in forest fires.
