This is what meteorologist on duty Sofie Tunes at the Vervarslinga Meteorological Institute for Northern Norway tells news.  &#8211; The temperature is going down.  It will rain and sleet for the rest of the day.  But this evening it could snow in Troms all the way down to the lowlands, she says.  Yellow danger warning Earlier this week, the Meteorological Institute sent out a danger warning for snow from Wednesday afternoon.  In other words, it is already underway.  In several places in Troms, the snow has started to fall.  A yellow warning for snow has been issued.

The ongoing snow warning lasts until Thursday morning.  Do you think it&#8217;s okay that it snows on May 31st?  The meteorologist has a clear call for people who drive with summer tyres: &#8211; One should pay attention to the driving conditions during this period.

In Kaperdalen on Senja, spring has not yet arrived.  On 31 May, the snow settled on the road in the afternoon.  Photo: Web camera \/ Statens vegvesen Lighter weather on Thursday It&#8217;s not just the rainfall and the temperature that make the weather sour.  The wind will pick up in a north-westerly, stiff gale in Troms and Western Finnmark.  Otherwise in Finnmark there will be a fresh breeze to a northerly gale.  &#8211; Will we get one winter day this time around, or can there be more?  &#8211; It will continue with these cool temperatures on Thursday morning.  Then the temperature will rise during the day.  Early in the day there will be sleet and perhaps snow showers.  Later in the day, it changes to rain showers and lighter weather.  On county road 84 near Gumpen in S\u00f8rreisa, the snow has settled.  Photo: Webkamera \/ Statens vegvesen On Wednesday, the avalanche danger is at the orange level, i.e. danger level 3, in the avalanche regions of Lyngen and Troms\u00f8.  This is reported by the notification service Varsom.  &#8211; Challenging conditions with a lot of rainfall.  Avoid steep terrain at altitude.  In the lowlands, some naturally triggered wet landslides can occur, says Varsom.  In the other avalanche regions in Troms and Finnmark, the danger level is level two.  The exception is the coast of Finnmark, where the avalanche danger is at its lowest level.  It is recommended to drive according to the weather conditions in Troms this evening.
