Up to 28 degrees and sunshine are replaced by rain and lower temperatures. Locally, it can mean extensive rain with embedded thunderstorms.

After a weekend that has gilded most parts of the country with sunshine – and temperatures up to 28 degrees in the south – a cold front is moving in over Sweden.

A fairly extensive rain area is approaching. Right now, it's lurking outside the west coast and will later in the day pass over Götaland. Later, it will reach the southern part of the mountain range and the area north of it, says Erik Höjgård-Olsen, meteorologist at SMHI.

The temperatures will be around 20 degrees and fall as the cold front moves north. However, it looks like northern Sweden will have the best sunshine chances during the day. In eastern Norrland, it can even reach up to 25 degrees.

Today, the best sunshine chances are in Norrbotten and along the northern Norrland coast. Tomorrow, it looks like Götaland can get a lot of sunshine.

By mid-week, the front will have passed Sweden. But no rapid clearing is expected, according to Höjgård-Olsen.

Right now, it looks like we'll get mixed weather with varying cloudiness in several areas.

Even though the bathing opportunities seem to decrease significantly during the week, Höjgård-Olsen means that Sweden is lucky in bad luck.

What we see right now is the front of a low-pressure system located near Iceland, but it will not pass Sweden, instead moving north of Scandinavia.
