– Those who live where the southerly winds take hold should watch out for garden furniture and trampolines, says state meteorologist Siri Wiberg. Wind gusts can be so strong that loose objects can become dangerous. According to the road traffic centre, the wind speed on Måløybrua is up to 33 meters per second. – There will be a southerly wind and it is mostly the coastal area in Vestland that will get strong winds. Stiff and strong gales are expected on Sunday afternoon. During the evening it will build up to a small storm that will last through the night. – It will blow up in a full storm on the coast near Stad. From Tuesday afternoon, southerly small storm-prone places in Western Norway are expected. @Meteorologene on Twitter The reports show that wind gusts of 25-30 meters per second are expected on the coast, in the mountains and in the inner reaches of Møre and Romsdal. – We have not sent out a danger warning, but it is still so powerful that it is good to know about it. – Road users should be aware that there may be fallen trees and strong crosswinds on the mountain crossings, says traffic operator Kjetil Larsen in the West Traffic Centre. Want to bucket down – It’s also just a matter of scaling the hatches because there will be a lot of rain tonight, says Wiberg. The most rainfall seems to occur in the zone between out on the coast and inland. Up to 100 millimeters is expected over the next 24 hours. – We have a danger warning for flash and landslides and the soil is quite well saturated with precipitation, so it’s good to be aware of that.

It is unlikely that it will lead to closed mountain passes, according to traffic operator Kjetil Larsen. – But there may be some reduced visibility. And people must drive with winter tires and take their time. Strynefjellet 930 meters above sea level is one of the places where there are often strong side winds. On Tuesday, there is a risk of snow flurries. Photo: Web camera / Norwegian Road Administration
