Snowfall and Blizzards on Sunday
This article discusses the expected snowfall and blizzard conditions in Estonia on Sunday due to a low-pressure area moving in from Scandinavia.
The article forecasts significant winter weather for Estonia this coming Sunday, as a low-pressure area will move from Scandinavia into the region, bringing with it snow and blizzard conditions. Additionally, there may be bouts of sleet and freezing rain occurring in various parts of the country. By the afternoon, conditions are expected to improve somewhat as a high-pressure ridge approaches from the Baltic Sea, pushing the precipitation towards the eastern border and allowing for clearer skies later in the day.
Throughout the night leading up to Sunday, the skies are anticipated to remain cloudy with dense snowfall moving eastward across the land. The article warns of potential sleet and freezing rain, especially in western Estonia, along with the risk of icing on surfaces due to significant precipitation. Winds from the southwest to south are expected to be moderate, with gusts reaching up to 18 m/s along coastal areas, and temperatures will range from 0 to 6 degrees Celsius.
On Sunday morning, the weather is expected to be predominantly cloudy, especially on the western side where there may be some breaks in the clouds. Snowfall and blowing snow are to be expected, and again, there will be a warning for the potential for sleet and the risk of ice. Winds will continue to be moderate to strong, contributing to challenging weather conditions, with temperatures falling between 0 to -5 degrees Celsius, setting the stage for a wintry day ahead.
