The beginning of the week offered temperatures of 20-25 degrees in Götaland and eastern Svealand, and 15-20 degrees in Norrland and western Svealand.
Today is the last day with a high-pressure ridge that has been on a temporary visit to the country at large and stabilized the weather, says Erik Höjgård-Olsen, meteorologist at SMHI.
During the night to Wednesday, the weather will change and become more unstable. The coming days are expected to bring rain and thus the temperature will also fall.
The first rain area will move in over the west coast and the mountain range in the early hours of tomorrow morning. Then it will move northeast during the day tomorrow over the entire country.
Whether the warmer weather will return later in the week remains to be seen, according to Erik Höjgård-Olsen.
Right now, I have no detailed temperature forecasts that show they will return, but it looks like unstable weather where the country's highest temperature will land around 20 degrees.
According to SMHI, the meteorological autumn arrives after five consecutive days with a daily mean temperature below 10 degrees. We are not quite there yet.
The mountain station Tarfala usually is the first in the country, and it might be the case this year as well. We have what we call autumn temperatures now in large parts of the mountain range, but not yet autumn, says Höjgård-Olsen.
