Midsummer is not far off, but what it has in store for the weather is highly uncertain. The basic tip is therefore, for the time being, to prepare for both high and low pressure.
I have been following the forecast material for the Midsummer weekend and see that it is very uncertain. One alternative is that a fairly deep low-pressure system moves in over the country with precipitation. But it could also bring high pressure and sunshine, notes meteorologist Linus Karlsson at the SMHI.
What can be predicted with some certainty, on the other hand, is that the temperature will not drop drastically, even if it does become a low-pressure system.
It will be around the normal for this time of year, that is, around the 20-degree mark or higher if the sun shows itself, says Linus Karlsson.
The forecast material also indicates that the risk of a potential Midsummer low-pressure system primarily affects the southern half of the country.
As it stands now, there is a possibility of slightly more stable weather in the northern part. But it is, as said, very uncertain.
Over the current weekend, the weather will be unstable with rain moving in from the southwest and slowly continuing northwards.
But there will be room for sunshine as well, in several places, says Linus Karlsson.
For Saturday, the SMHI has also issued a yellow warning for strong winds over the Skagerrak and Kattegat. The winds will die down during the Saturday evening.
