Warning from MET Norway for Parts of Rogaland and Vestland

2

Strong wind gusts, yellow level (MET)

Published: Valid: from 15.11.2022 14:00 to 18.11.2022 19:00

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. Some roads may be closed due to trees or other objects in the road. Blowing snow at higher altitudes 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). In advance consider measures to limit damage.

Description

From Tuesday afternoon it is expected wind gust from southeast around 27-30 m/s. Declining wind Friday afternoon, first in northern parts.
