Default Weather in Norway

Thank you Bjørn for the chilly insight, I look forward to my trip.

Looking at the NOGAPS charts in the days after tomorrow - which
happens to be Norway's famous national day 17th of May, btw! - it is
really getting chilly. At the current forecast by NOGAPS it really
looks that - especially at the west coast (and mountains) - it may
actually snow at sea level!

It may be that the coming forecast will show a somewhat milder
situation, but since the cold air seems to penetrate almost to Denmark
it is actually a great chance it will snow in the western part of
Southern Norway on the 19-21st.
I have seen no chart for the days after the 21st, so I cannot tell
what will happen thereafter.
Pretty malapropos then that one week ago I recorded in four days
consecutively: 22.6, 25.1!, 26.2!! & 22.6 C at my location here at the
west coast of southern Norway - 62 deg N. On the TV there was talk
about this (and the warm spring uptil then) - was the more or less
definite sign of global warming! There was great flooding in the
eastern part of Southern Norway because of this heathwave also.

In the last 20 years I know only once it has been snowing here in mid/
late May. And I was not even here too see it myself, at the time...

Greetings,
Bjørn Sørheim,
in Norway

Hi,
Can anyone please give me any idea of what kind of weather I can expect

in
Norway, I go there next weekend. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
It's cold and raining at the moment, is it going to improve?
Bergen, Sognefjord and Nordfjord are the areas to be visited.
Thanks in advance.
