20 degrees up - in just a few hours: "Big difference"
Temperatures in Southern Sweden are set to rise dramatically by 15-20 degrees following a cold night, signaling a shift to milder weather conditions.
After experiencing a frigid night, temperatures in large parts of Southern Sweden are expected to rise significantly throughout the morning hours. In areas like GΓΆtaland, Svealand, and southern Norrland, many regions recorded temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius, with early commuters needing to bundle up to avoid the chill. Despite the cold temperatures, meteorologist Magnus Nilsson Sangrud notes that the weather is about to change dramatically as milder air moves in.
By the afternoon, individuals are advised to shed their warm layers as temperatures are forecasted to rise significantly, settling between a few degrees below freezing to about zero degrees Celsius. This shift represents a notable difference, with anticipated temperature changes of up to 15 degrees between morning and afternoon. Such variations in weather are common during this transition period, where conditions remain unsettled and subject to rapid fluctuations.
The improvement in the weather not only affects daily commuting but also presents implications for local activities and planning, indicating potential for more seasonal behaviors like outdoor events as temperatures stabilize. With changing weather patterns, residents may need to adjust to the unpredictability typical of early spring in Sweden, where notable swings in temperature are part of the climate.
