The night before Friday and Friday morning are expected to bring snow and undercooled rain on cold roads, which can cause problems in traffic. There is a risk of large problems with slipping and the police therefore advise drivers to be cautious. If possible, work from home.

Due to the expected slipping, SMHI has issued an orange warning that covers Jönköping County and Östergötland County. A yellow warning covers Sörmland County. Traffic conditions can be difficult and the police want to prevent traffic accidents.

If you must drive between midnight and 09.00 on Friday, think about keeping a distance from the vehicle in front of you, being out in good time, and driving cautiously. If there are accidents or stationary vehicles, even important public functions such as rescue services and police may have trouble getting through.

Notice that weather warnings can change with short notice. Therefore, keep yourself updated on the weather situation and traffic conditions in a warning situation.
