Mikaela Stoor lives in Sörfjärden outside Gnarp in Hälsingland. There, Storm Johannes has knocked down trees onto houses and cars.
A family had a huge tree fall on their car, leaving it completely damaged.
When we were going up to Gnarp yesterday, trees had fallen across the road. We had a saw with us and had to stop and cut the road open.
Although Mikaela Stoor was unharmed, it has been a worrying night because she does not know how extensive the damage around her is. She lives not far from a campsite and was down in the evening to see if her mother-in-law's caravan had survived.
It's a cottage area with 80 cottages and we saw one that had trees covering it. But it was really hard to see; we only had the car headlights.
Without a phone
At least 40,000 subscribers were without electricity on Sunday morning. Kalle Frid, 77, in Trönödal in Söderhamn municipality has been without power for a day.
But we have a wood stove and a tiled stove. And we have an underground cellar that keeps the temperature at five degrees Celsius. So things are going pretty well for us here, he says.
However, the power outage creates problems because it is not possible to use the mobile phone.
The nearest mast is down. So sometimes we have contact with someone further away, and then we can get a message. It's a bit annoying that text messages don't get through. We didn't even get the VMA, says Kalle Frid.
“Among the worst”
Åsa Lundberg, 61, from Enviken in Dalarna was also affected by the storm. The strong winds blew the balcony window in.
"It's probably among the worst storms I've ever experienced," she says the next day.
I live right by the lake and it blew straight in from there. It just came straight in and the wind pushed the whole window in.
She describes the surrounding forests as "a total mess" with lots of fallen trees on the surrounding land.
It's everywhere. It's going to be an insane amount of work to take care of this. It's not good, says Åsa Lundberg.
At the same time, she notes that neighbors and acquaintances have come together and helped each other.
It's been great. You've seen in the village groups that we have on Facebook that people have been out helping everywhere.
