I come from a warm country, so now we have a lot of fun, says Zakarya Adan. – It’s nice to eat ice cream and be able to hang out with friends, or go to the beach and swim, says Maged. – Have you had a bath this year? – Yes, last week. I bathe five times, says Maged. If it’s 20 degrees this weekend, he promises to go swimming again. There are good opportunities for that. – Summer is coming this weekend Ingvild Villa, state meteorologist at the Meteorological Institute Photo: Meteorological Institute On Friday morning, the fog clouds lay over Eastern Norway, but during the day both the sun and the heat will return.

It looks like summer will arrive this weekend, says meteorologist on duty, Ingvild Villa. – We have been waiting for this. In Kragerø, more people are out enjoying the sun. – We have been waiting for this heat. It’s nice to be able to go out and eat some ice cream and enjoy the summer heat, says Stian Kristiansen.

There is a lot of ice cream and soft ice cream, she says. Among the customers we find Mathilde and Albert Kjos. They have each bought their own soft ice cream with strawberry sprinkles, but it is not the ice cream they think is best with the heat. – The best thing about the heat is that we can swim, says Albert. – It’s fun with heat. It’s nice to be able to wear something other than trousers, says Mathilde. Mathilde and Albert Kjos enjoy a soft ice cream with sprinkles.

Because even though it is wet and gray on Friday, and the same weather has been reported for Saturday, it will also be better there on Sunday. – On Sunday, they will also get a taste of summer. It could probably be upwards of 20 degrees in the interior, says the meteorologist. Parts of Troms and Nordland will have rather gray and wet weather this weekend. BOAT LIFE: in Kragerø, many have started the boating season. Photo: Håkon Lie / news Several weather winners – As for Western Norway and Trøndelag, they will also have a relatively nice weekend, but there is also a slight risk of some fog along the coast. – Where do we get the best weather? – There will be several weather winners, but if you look at the highest temperature and the most hours of sunshine, i.e. what most people associate with the best weather, it will be Østafjell’s, says Villa. Warm also next weekend The fine weather lasts until next weekend, according to the long-term forecast, interrupted by slightly cooler weather at the beginning of the week. – As early as Monday, a cold front will come in, which can give some unstable air and the possibility of some heavy showers and slightly cooler air, says the meteorologist. But then it turns around again. – It looks like it will get a little warmer again into next week. It is a bit uncertain, but it looks like the temperatures will be relatively high.
