Significant avalanche danger (level 3) now affects three Swedish mountain areas, up from two in recent forecasts, according to the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's Lavinprognoser.se. Southern Lapland's west-facing slopes join southern Jämtland (including Åre) and western Härjedalen. Warnings valid until Friday, January 3, at 6 p.m.
