Continuous rain

Issue date: 2025-08-27T09:10+00:00

- Possible impacts: Rising water level of streams and normally dry ditches. Landslides on steep slopes. Disruption to road traffic (longer journey times, risk of accidents) due to poor visibility and flooding. - Recommendations for action: Stay away from watercourses, lake shore areas and steep slopes. Pay attention to possible flood warnings from the FOEN. Keep out of cellars and basements when there is a danger of flooding (see procedures for flooding). Avoid watercourses in the mountains at all cost, as these are prone to mudslides. A mudslide can occur very suddenly and without warning, and can be a powerful destructive force. - Expected amounts: 50-90 mm - Snowfall limit: 3800-2800 m (sinking) - Peak phase of the event: Thu 08 - Thu 18 - Intensifying conditions: locally higher precipitation amounts due to embedded thunderstorms
