SMHI notes that the yellow weather warning issued ahead of the heavy rainfall in Ångermanland in September was too weak, reports P4 Västernorrland.

Large amounts of rain fell over Ångermanland on September 7. The storm led to flooding and roads being washed away. A man died when a car drove down into a crack at a demolished road in Härnösand.

An orange warning should have been issued instead, according to an evaluation by the weather authority.
