Furiously snowing in the last days here. A steady stream
from arctic northwest. Continuous snowing
almost all the time. Will definitely continue tomorrow...
Many schools have been closed in another municipality
in the province/county, because of avalanches/avalanche treath.
Many roads have been closed because of avalanches,
or threath of avalanches. Main road to eastern Norway
now closed! Haven't happened in years. Unusual situation.

Will probably break the snow depth record tomorrow for
this winter at my location - which was 115 cm.
As it get much wetter in the coming days the situation will
only get worse. So cross your fingers...

Here is a link to the weather radar in my area. I live on the
peninsula just south of Ålesund.

I've always thought that your part of coastal SW Norway is fairly mild
in Winter, your reports this year have been an eye-opener. Good luck
with the shovelling!

What is the height above sea level of your location? Do you have any
photos this time?
