After a long period of bare land in several places in the north, more people again have to look forward to looking forward to winter clothes and snow drawers. For the snow now comes in such large quantities that the meteorologists have sent out danger warning for snow. The danger warning applies to both Trøndelag and Nordland. – In short, the wind has turned, and comes from a northern direction. This means that we get cold air from Greenland and the North Pole that comes across the hot sea. Then we get quite powerful snow showers that hit land. This is stated by Sigrid Auganæs, on-duty meteorologist at the Meteorological Institute in Northern Norway. Therefore, the meteorologists have now sent out a yellow danger warning for snow. Yellow hazard level yellow is used for a moderately dangerous situation, which can cause damage locally. Yellow hazard alerts are sent out when minor consequences are expected. Most will be able to continue their daily chores, but those such as Planning outdoor activities, should be attentive or possibly stay inside. There may be damage to local power outages, there are likely to be delays in traffic wind can make it dangerous to be in the mountain Read more about different hazard levels. Secure items from Friday afternoon to Saturday night, between 20 and 40 centimeters of snow is expected for parts of Nordland. While in Trøndelag, between 10 and 25 centimeters of snow is expected in the same period. But it’s not just snow expected. – It looks like there may be a full storm exposed places, mostly in the area around Lofoten. But the coast down Helgeland can also get a small storm exposed places this weekend, she says. Therefore, you may want to secure loose objects. For some, the snow and minus degrees are welcome. Snow -poor for the world elite on March 22, Marcialonga Bodø will be organized, and the plan is for the world elite in long -running to finish right in the center of the city. With this year’s February behind us, which contained 99 heat records, it has looked dark. There has hardly been a snowflake in the streets lately. And the temperatures have made it challenging to produce artificial snow. Here Magni Smedås crosses the finish line in Bodø last year. In advance, 400 truckloads of snow needed to fill the streets with snow. This year, Marcialonga Bodø is part of the Ski Classics Pro Tour. But the forecasts for snow look significantly worse.

For already Monday, the mild weather comes, and the rainfall goes from snow to rain. – There have been several elements of mild weather this winter, and there will be one next week, says Auganæs. How mild weather hits is a little uncertain at present. – So far, it looks like there will be elements of milder temperatures in Nordland. But how far north is uncertain. As the forecast is now, the distinction is between hot and cold air between Nordland and Troms. So what about the world elite in Bodø? – There is a risk that the snow is gone. There will be some snow this weekend, but from Monday it will be milder and will rain. So maybe the snow is thin. Published 14.03.2025, at. 09.28 Updated 14.03.2025, at. 09.36
