Default Norway almost cut in half by flooding

The main road of Norway, the E6 (like the M1 of UK) is totally
impassable at a number of locations - for the second day. That
goes for a large numbers of other routes, icluding one of the other
main routes further east - Rv 3 (Main national route 3).
The main railway route through southern Norway (Dovrebanen)
is also cut off in the same area, the Gubrandsdal valley.
It will probably take several days before these routes
can be opend again. For a large part of southern Norway (also
actually in parts of northern Norway) it is a dire situation for
the moment. Several hundred people have been evacuated from their
homes.

The main road through Norway today! :
