Polar air affects Scandinavia.. A polar air mass is rushing into northwestern Europe in the middle and end of the week

Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Center said that the latest outputs of numerical computer models show the rush of a very cold polar air mass from the Arctic Circle to northwestern Europe, specifically the Scandinavian countries, in the middle and end of this week, accompanied by very cold weather conditions and snowfall in several regions.

Polar air mass to push into northern Europe mid-week and weekend

In detail, a very cold polar air mass is rushing towards the North Atlantic Ocean and moving towards northwestern Europe to settle over the Norwegian Sea. Due to the sharp temperature differences between the surface temperature of the water and the extreme coldness of the air mass, a strong storm is formed with very low atmospheric pressure values reaching (974 millibars) accompanied by cold air fronts starting from Tuesday until the end of the week. The storm causes violent winds exceeding 100 km/h, causing severe turbulence of the waves and the wave height reaching more than 7 meters, in addition to very heavy rainfall and heavy snowfall over many areas. These weather conditions affect the Scandinavian countries, specifically (Norway, Sweden and Denmark).

Negative temperatures and bitterly cold weather coincide with the passage of polar air

As the polar air passes, temperatures drop significantly, and the weather becomes very cold, with temperatures dropping below zero degrees Celsius, especially in Sweden and Denmark. This comes as the weather systems in the northern hemisphere begin to change, coinciding with the astronomical approach of autumn. As a result, solar radiation over the North Pole decreases, and the air above the Arctic Circle becomes colder.

God knows best.
