According to Statens vegvesen, the situation on some Norwegian roads is difficult to drive by car. This is especially true of mountain sections where snow can fall. Drivers should also be prepared for strong side winds that can push the car to the side of the road.

Nice only to the east

The autumn weather has made its place in Scandinavia for good. Drivers in most parts of the country should drive more carefully than usual. The weather conditions are not conducive to bravado. However, according to the Meteorological Institute, the inhabitants of the eastern part of the country should enjoy the favorable weather.
