As the weekend approaches, weather forecasts indicate a stark contrast across Norway.

While southern regions brace for a rainy Friday with temperatures dropping to around 15 degrees Celsius, northern areas like Kirkenes are set to bask in summer warmth, reaching nearly 30 degrees.

Meteorologists predict that the rain in the south will ease by Sunday, allowing for sunnier days ahead.

Next week, temperatures in southern Norway could rise to 25 degrees, providing a much-needed respite from the recent wet weather.

However, the northern regions may experience variable conditions, with some rain expected.

Overall, the upcoming week looks promising for those in the south, while the north prepares for a mix of sun and clouds.
