Severe Storm due in Norway/Denmark/Sweden

[TRADITIONAL LOGGERS]

I know some on here live/work in these countries and assume are aware there is a severe storm due from 16.00hrs TODAY until 06.00hrs TUESDAY.

 

Waves on the coast around 26 metres and inland winds with gusts in some areas of 40m/s :001_rolleyes:

 

Snowing hard here but sunshine and little wind. Main roads closed across the mountains. Police advise keep inside.

 

Sharpen those saws and batten down the hatches.

You mean 26ft waves surely

I think it's called a Tsunami

Could be correct - they were predicting 20m waves off Scottish coasts during the storms of the last few days!!!

Very much doubt that it is 26m waves that are forecast:

 

Massive Atlantic wave sets record, says World Meteorological Organization - BBC News

 

We've had it bad here for the past few days (but nothing too horrendous) - maybe Barbara and Conner are getting it together in Scandinavia?!

I do mean 26 METRES and the news pictures on the west coast are bad. Boats trashed/vehicles turned over/trees down and house roofs ripped off. Storm is arriving here now in the mountains of Telemark.

Good luck, hope your not hit too bad.

 

We had a couple pretty tame storms forecast, fortunately they turned out to be pretty much nothing around here.

Rough Night. Little Sleep. We and the animals (Shires/Clydesdales/German Shepherds) are pleased to be alive this morning.

Damage here is a few curved ridge tiles and the chimney cowl. Much tree debris around and thousands of Spruce needles on the snow.

 

On the mountain tourism centre at 1340 MOH (metres above sealevel) it recorded wind speeds of 170KLMS/HR (106 MPH)

Glad to hear you and your animals are all safe:thumbup:
