Warning from MET Norway for Parts of Rogaland and Vestland

2

Strong wind gusts, yellow level (MET)

Published: Valid: from 27.12.2023 20:00 to 28.12.2023 06:00

Warning

Wind gusts

Consequence

Loose items may be taken by the wind. Possibly cancelled departures for ferry, plane, or other transport. Bridges may be closed. Some journeys may have longer travel times. The power supply may be impacted, due to tree(s) falling over. Blowing snow causes reduced visibility and possibly convoys and/or closed roads. The strong wind may cause locally high waves in fjords and lakes.

Advice

Secure loose objects. Avoid unnecessary journeys to exposed places. Follow advice and check status from transport operators. Check road reports (175.no). Be careful in coastal areas. In advance consider measures to limit damage.

Description

Locally very strong wind gusts are expected up to 30-37 m/s from E-SE. In Inner parts of Agder around 20 m/s.
