New Low Pressure System Brings Widespread Rain to Norway
Norway faces another round of rainfall as a new low pressure system moves across the country. The weather is far less severe than last weekend's extreme storm Amy that left thousands without power. Cleanup efforts continue from the previous weather damage.
A low pressure system is moving across Norway this week. It will bring rainfall to nearly all regions. This weather pattern is much less severe than the recent extreme storm named Amy.
Meteorologists describe this as a typical autumn low pressure system. It follows weekend storms that left 155,000 customers without power. Insurance companies received about 7,500 damage claims from the previous extreme weather.
The current system shows how quickly weather conditions can change in Scandinavia. While disruptive, such autumn storms remain common in this region. Norway's mountainous terrain often amplifies weather systems moving inland from the coast.
Emergency services remain alert after handling thousands of calls during the previous storm. The new rainfall could complicate cleanup efforts in some areas.
