closeLocally moderate vessel icing is expected in coastal and fjord districts from Thursday morning in North Helgeland, Salten, Lofoten, Ofoten and Vesterålen.
Area
Applies to Helgeland, Salten, Ofoten, Lofoten og Vesterålen.
Instructions
Remove ice from the boat.
Consequences
Rapid ice accumulation on a small boat may cause it to lose its stability, tip over and sink. For ships the issue is more directed towards slippery decks, handrailing, ladders, iced down safety boats and safety equipment. Ice accumulation may also damage radio communication if the antennas are freezing. Moderate ice accumulation on the bow/bridge of the ship.
Timeline

Area
Applies to Lofoten and Vesteraalen.
Instructions
Secure loose objects. Follow advice and check status from transport operators. Check road reports (175.no).
Consequences
Loose items may be taken by the wind. Possibly cancelled departures for ferry, plane, or other transport. Some journeys may have longer travel times. Blowing snow causes reduced visibility and possibly convoys and/or closed roads.
