– It will crack both the house wall and the body in the coldest weather. That’s what Hans Olav Hygen, climate researcher at the Meteorological Institute, says. He says that the coldest measuring stations are in Innlandet and Trøndelag. – Now Tynset and Røros are the coldest in the country with minus 32 degrees. – Some will get a hint of extreme cold these days, says climate researcher Hans Olav Hygen.

In the Oslo area, it may even be plus degrees on Sunday, says Hygen. At Namnå in Grue in Solør it was also unusually cold today, says news tipster Tom Sollien. – It was bitterly cold at Mårran today, 33 degrees Celsius. It’s rarely this cold. We have experienced colder weather, but now it must stop. What do you think of the cold? Brrr! Don’t like it 🥶 Getting used to it 🙄 Cold? This is no big deal 😎 Show result The cold presents challenges for Sør Østerdal intermunicipal waste management company (SØIR) in the Inland, which struggles with cars that do not want to go in the cold. Emptying of food waste and paper has been canceled on Tuesday in Elverum, Trysil and Åmot, the company reports on its website. These routes will not be run later. – Several people have to prepare for a new load of snow, says climate researcher Hygen.

Several areas must be prepared to receive a new load of snow on Tuesday and Wednesday, says Hygen. Canceling more bus departures The cold has put a brake on Ruter’s bus service in Oslo this winter. A number of bus departures are now canceled to ease the pressure in anticipation of another cold wave. From Tuesday and into the weekend, it has been reported to drop to 20 degrees Celsius in the capital. – We have had good cooperation with our operators in the last few days and together prepared a plan to provide a predictable offer to the population of Oslo and Akershus, says CEO Bernt Reitan Jenssen in Ruter in a press release on Monday. Low temperatures create challenges for electric buses. Buses charge here on Strømsveien by Alnabru.

According to Aftenposten, 4 per cent of all Ruter’s bus departures have been canceled during the first 15 days of the year. Both Ruter and the operators are manning up the next few days in the face of the cold. Nevertheless, it will mean fewer departures on a number of bus lines. Routes still promise a good bus service in the morning and afternoon rush hours. The purpose is to give the buses time to recharge their batteries more often when there is a longer time between each departure. Danger of avalanches and icing on ships On Tuesday, a significant avalanche danger is expected in the region of Nord- and Indre Troms, Helgeland and Lyngen. Landslides can hit certain landslide-prone roads and buildings, according to Yr. Traveling in avalanche terrain requires solid knowledge, experience in route selection and the ability to identify avalanche problems, according to Yr. In general, it is recommended to avoid avalanche terrain. An orange danger warning for icing on ships has also been sent out in a number of sea areas. In addition, a yellow danger warning about icing on ships has been issued for the coastal areas north of Trøndelag, and in the coastal areas north of the Trondheimsfjord. Rapid ice growth can cause small boats to lose stability, capsize and sink. For larger boats, smooth decks, railings, ladders and low-profile lifeboats and other rescue equipment are expected. The icing can destroy radio communication if the antennas freeze. Yr urges to remove the ice quickly from the boat. DANGER WARNING: The cold can lead to icing on boats (archive photo).
