Today, Feb. 25
closeThe water discharge is expected to increase rapidly in small and medium sized rivers is expected. Water discharge is expected to increase because of rain and snowmelt. This may cause local inundation where river channels are filled with ice and because of frozen ground. It also may cause ice drift in streams, with subsequent local inundation.
Area
Applies to Rogaland, nord for Jæren, og Vestland fylke.
Instructions
Stay informed on the situation. Cleaning of drainage paths and culverts is recommended.
Consequences
Situation that requires vigilance and may cause local damages
Some slushflows are expected. A few large slides may occur. Exposed railways and roads may be closed. Risk of slushflows is especially high in areas with more than 50 cm snow. The snow may in some places be fully water-saturated. Slushflows are triggered even in relatively gentle slopes, where water accumulates. Slushflows follow terrain depressions and may develop into debris flows. Heavy rain is expected. Relatively high temperatures and windy conditions causes significant snowmelting.
Area
Applies to Vestlandet.
Instructions
Keep away from steep slopes, as well as streams and rivers with high discharge.
Consequences
Situation that requires vigilance and may cause local damages
On Thursday we expect considerable avalanche danger for region Voss. Avalanche problem is wind drifted snow (slab avalanches).
Area
Applies to Voss.
Instructions
Travelling in avalanche terrain requires advanced knowledge, experience in route finding and ability to identify the avalanche problem. Generally, it is recommended to avoid avalanche terrain. Avalanches may hit some avalanche-exposed roads and occasionally settlements.
