After a day of rain, thunderstorms, and a weather advisory that was quickly lifted, the forecast looks much brighter. More stable weather is expected as early as this weekend, with the Baltic Sea coast set to be the big winner, according to meteorologists.
On Wednesday morning, the SMHI issued a yellow warning for thunderstorms and torrential rain in southern Götaland, but the warning was lifted after about an hour when the thunderstorms subsided and the rain no longer reached torrential levels.
The unsettled weather is expected to continue on Wednesday and Thursday, with locally heavy rain showers in several parts of the country. According to TV4's meteorologist Madeleine Westin The storm is caused by the convergence of very warm air over the continent and cooler air over Sweden.
But the forecast also contains some good news for vacationers.
– This weekend, the weather will stabilize and it will mostly be dry. The Baltic Sea coast is the best bet if you want to avoid rain., says Westin.
At the same time, the SMHI warns that the risk of forest fires remains very high to extremely high in parts of northeastern Götaland and eastern Svealand, even though the expected rain showers may reduce the fire risk somewhat.
