– It will rain a lot today too, says the meteorologist on duty at the Meteorological Institute, Ingvild Villa in Dagbladet.
On Tuesday June 20, meteorologists reported that the likelihood of warm weather is “significantly higher than normal”. The heat persists in large parts of the country, but the sun takes a short vacation.
Declares a Norwegian heat wave
Southern Norway loses
Cloudy weather for the past few days will likely peak on Wednesday, according to Villa.
– A southwestern front will move across large parts of southern Norway through Wednesday. Especially in the Oslo area and a bit further inland there can be rainfall, she says, and adds:
– It is good both in terms of forest fire risk and farmers.
Hope is not yet entirely lost for the sun-drenched Easterners. In particular, the inner part of eastern Norway seems to end up with the best cards.
– The interior of eastern Norway can probably have a slightly better day than the rest of southern Norway with less rain.
Time left to weekend
The front will probably pass tomorrow, Thursday June 22, then move up towards northern Norway. Then the country may experience lower temperatures.
– Southern Norway will have warmer temperatures, and it will become drier again, while temperatures are likely to drop to 12-13 degrees in Nordland. For now, Finnmark still seems to have good weather, she points out.
– Very promising
If you assume that everyone wants sunshine, the course should be set towards the center of the country, according to the meteorologist. Specifically, Trøndelag.
– Trøndelag looks very promising. Here, it can be over 22 degrees throughout Wednesday.
– The region will still experience some precipitation tonight and tomorrow. For now, Wednesday is the best day, but there are reasons to believe that it will be better in the future, she concludes.
