Although the asphalt looks black, it can be mirror-gloss, and there can be places where it gets particularly scary. The cold will not last long, and it is expected to become milder towards the weekend. It will not be as mild as it was in southern Norway on the first Advent weekend.

There was not much that reminded me of December, the first Advent weekend with both rain, fog and many plus degrees in southern Norway. – With a northerly wind, the minus degrees also come. It will rain a bit on Monday afternoon, but then the temperature will drop late tonight, warns Roggentin. – Then it can become dangerously slippery when you go out for a drive at night or in the morning. Are you ready for the smooth? No, do you ever become one? 😣 Yes, I have the skates ready and the studded tires on! 😁 Well, isn’t it winter then? ❄ Show result So it might be a good idea to check the guide before you hit the road. An effective way to check your driving is by doing a brake test. Make sure there are no cars directly behind, and test the road grip often as it can quickly change during the trip. Be careful if you are going to travel on foot too, it can quickly get busy at the emergency room if you don’t.

If you are going out for a drive tomorrow morning, slow down and drive according to the conditions. Ingemar Ulvenes in the National Road Administration warns against mirror-gloss black asphalt. The picture is from November last year when winter had already announced its arrival.

Still, there can be places where it can get scary, he says. He says winter offers many different challenges when it comes to the surface. Major changes in temperature and rainfall continuously change the conditions on the roads. – Then you have to drive according to what the road conditions are like when you go out on the road. Milder towards the weekend The cold, on the other hand, does not last so long this time. It will be milder towards the weekend when we will light the second Advent candle. – It will drop to minus 5 degrees throughout southern Norway on Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday and Friday, and towards the weekend it will be a little milder again, says meteorologist Roggentin. It will not be as mild as we have had in southern Norway on the first Advent weekend.
