During the night, a white blanket has settled over county road 55 Sognefjellet and county road 51 Valdresflya. – It’s snowing sideways, but it’s starting to let up a little now. That’s what plow driver Terje Weka says. He is responsible for plowing on the west side of Sognefjellet on county road 55. He believes the snow will disappear, but warns against driving over the mountain with summer tyres. – If anyone has thought about the mountain, it is winter tires that apply, says Weka and adds: – I was in contact with two motorists yesterday who did not dare to drive over, they were not shod for the road. SOGNEFJELLET: A white blanket has settled over Sognefjellet. There is a risk of snow over several mountain passes in southern Norway. Photo: Terje Weka Danger warning sent out A danger warning has been sent out for snow on high mountain crossings in several places in southern Norway on Monday. This applies to Strynefjellet, Sognefjellet, Valdresflya and Hardangervidda. The weather outlook can lead to difficult driving conditions locally. The recommendation from the Meteorological Institute is to calculate some extra time for transport and driving. The need for preparedness is continuously assessed. – There is currently no snow over Hardangervidda, but that can quickly change, says traffic operator at the Road Traffic Center West Remi Lian.
