With the bad weather Amy approaching, SMHI is now gradually expanding the warnings.
On Saturday, it will be quite windy with strong gusts in most of the country and in parts of Götaland and Svealand very strong gusts, on the west coast and Skåne's south coast up to storm gusts.
It seems that it is mainly along the west coast and Skåne's south coast, very close to the coast. There may be storm gusts from Saturday morning to Saturday afternoon, says Max Lindberg Stoltz, meteorologist at SMHI.
A bit inland in the same area, very strong gusts are expected.
The peak seems to be reached sometime during the morning, but it will of course be very windy both before and after that.
Canceled trains
Trains will be canceled on a large number of routes during parts of or in some cases the entire Saturday, according to Trafikverket.
In the eastern parts, it concerns Svealandsbanan, Stångådalsbanan, Tjustbanan, Nyköpingsbanan and the route Eskilstuna–Oxelösund.
In western Sweden, trains are canceled on the routes Varberg–Borås, Borås–Herrljunga, Håkantorp–Gårdsjö and Öxnered–Uddevalla. In Värmland, traffic is stopped on the route Kil–Torsby.
In southern Sweden, traffic is canceled on the following routes: Ystad–Simrishamn, Lockarp–Trelleborg, Nässjö–Hultsfred–Vetlanda and Rimforsa–Kalmar.
Destination Gotland cancels four departures during Saturday, reports P4 Gotland. Between Strömstad and Sandefjord, the shipping company Colorline cancels two departures during Saturday, according to Sandefjords Blad.
A lot of rain
Partly, it will also rain a lot, but not so much that SMHI issues a warning. In some places, it may be 30–40 millimeters of rain.
It would have been a warning if it had come in just a few hours, but now it will be more spread out, says Max Lindberg Stoltz.
However, he flags that a warning for large amounts of rain over Västernorrland may come during the second half of Saturday and the first half of Sunday.
There may be 50 and possibly locally up to 70 millimeters of rain during the day.
