The good weather has been touring the country in recent weeks, but this week it looks like the really nice summer days are staying away from Norway. State meteorologist Charalampos Sarchosidis expects a wet week pretty much everywhere. – There is no place in Norway where there is a scorching summer, cloudless skies and high temperatures. It will be a bit unstable for everyone, says Sarchosidis. Heavy rain in the north The humid week starts with full force in the north. On Monday, a yellow warning for torrential rain was issued for large parts of Troms west of Lyngsalpan.

Worst of all in the west If you have chosen the west country for this year’s Norway holiday, you are out of luck if you go on holiday this week. – It is the western country that will get the worst of everything, says Sarchosidis.
