Western Norway is facing severe weather conditions, with heavy rainfall and strong winds causing widespread disruptions.
Authorities have issued red alerts for flooding and landslides in Vestland, Rogaland, and Møre og Romsdal.
Over 120 millimeters of rain is expected in some areas, leading to road closures, including E39 near Hornindalsvatnet, where a landslide trapped a car.
Emergency services are working tirelessly to manage flooding in Ålesund and other affected regions.
Rising temperatures are also accelerating snowmelt, worsening the situation.
Residents are urged to stay cautious, avoid unnecessary travel, and prepare for potential power outages.
