Forecast Ragnarok - valid for 16-17-18/04/2010
On the east flank of the British high pressure a moderate NW’ly wind is generated over Central Norway.
On Saturday this situation is replaced by the passage of a frontal depression. This disturbance generates overcast conditions with moderate rain or sleet, clearing in the evening after the passage of the coldfront.
After the passage of the coldfront, the wind turns again to the NW and weather conditions improve for Sunday: sunny spells, and mostly dry.
