As remnants of Storm Anna bring continued snowfall into mid-week, a new low-pressure system threatens heavy snow in western regions, while SMHI forecasts high pressure bringing nationwide cold and a potential ice day over the weekend.
After slush and above-freezing temperatures across much of the country, colder weather is approaching. A high-pressure ridge brings mostly dry conditions on Sunday, with sub-zero temperatures north of northern Dalarna and slight positives further south, according to SMHI.

After Storm Anna's heavy snow and winds earlier this week, an Arctic cold front now dominates Sweden, with SMHI forecasting sub-zero temperatures nationwide and fresh snowstorms in the south on Monday.
Large parts of Sweden have seen less than five hours of sunlight so far in December, according to preliminary SMHI figures. Stockholm and several other places have it particularly dark with under one hour of sunshine. Meteorologist Linus Falk describes it as generally low figures due to low pressure and clouds.

Winter grips Sweden with cold air and snowfall from north to south over the coming week. Meteorologists warn of minus degrees at night across the country and recommend switching to winter tires. Snow showers are expected as early as the weekend in the north and later in the south.
