Strong wind gusts, yellow level (MET)

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. Blowing snow at higher altitudes causes reduced visibility and possibly convoys and/or closed roads.

Secure loose objects. 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

From late Wednesday morning expected easterly near and occasionally gale force 8 at exposed places with local gust 27-35 m/s. Decreasing Wednesday evening.
