Snow makes comeback with larger amounts in Skåne

Heavy snowfall is expected in southern Sweden, especially in Skåne. The weather conditions will remain cold and windy.

Snow is returning to southern parts of Sweden after a period of milder weather. According to forecasts from Sydsvenskan, heavy snowfall is expected to affect the region, with larger amounts in Skåne. The cold and windy conditions will continue, potentially leading to challenging driving conditions and other issues for residents.

The weather pattern has shifted quickly, and the upcoming snowfalls mark a clear comeback for winter in southern Sweden. Skåne, which often experiences milder winters, will be hit hardest this time with thicker snow layers. No specific timings or amounts are detailed in the reports, but warnings are issued to prepare the public for the changes.

This turn in the weather reminds of how unpredictable the climate can be in the Nordic region, where cold spells can arrive suddenly even late in winter.

The Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) has issued yellow warnings for sudden icy conditions in parts of Norrbotten and Västerbotten on Monday. The warnings are due to rain freezing on cold surfaces. There is a risk of traffic disruptions, and caution is advised.

Heavy snowfall has caused chaos on E22 between Oskarshamn and Mönsterås in Småland, where traffic is at a standstill and rescue vehicles are stuck. SMHI has issued orange warnings for up to 40 cm of snow in eastern Sweden, and authorities urge people to stay home. The chaos is worsened by fallen trees and ongoing snow cannons.
