Snow weather has caught up with Norway. Numerous snowfalls lead to very difficult road situations. The first day after the weekend for the Norwegians was not too optimistic, numerous problems in road traffic occur practically all over the country.
Lots of snowfall
Norway has been hit by a real, cold winter, which would not be a bad thing if it had not been for the problems in road traffic. The Lofoten commune is struggling with numerous snowfalls from the very morning, which, according to the Meteorological Institute, are to disappear by evening. In municipalities such as Flakstad, Lofoten and Vestvågøy, many roads were closed on Monday morning. Reason? Very high avalanche risk. Only on Tuesday morning will the road services decide to close or open them further.
